Though we are optimistic about the purpose and end of reality, and though we believe that God “works all things together for good” (Rom. 8:28), we are not therefore monistic idealists, that is, those who falsely say that evil is not real or who claim that it is \u201cpart of God.\u201d We are given \u201cexceedingly great and precious promises,\u201d yet in this world we suffer and experience real pain, heartache, and troubles. Yeshua said \u201cin this world you will have tribulation,\u201d though that is not the end of the story, of course, for there is the cheer of God\u2019s\u2019 victory, even if we must repeatedly ask God for grace to endure our troubles without murmuring (John 16:33; Heb. 4:16). I realize that is often difficult, and some of you might be within the fiery furnace even now. You might be asking, \u201cWhere are you, Lord, in all of this? \u00a0Why don\u2019t you bring me out of these troubles?\u201d In such testing you need endurance (\u1f51\u03c0\u03bf\u03bc\u03bf\u03bd\u1f75) to hold on to hope, believing that God uses affliction to refine you for good. \u00a0As Paul said, \u201cWe rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces refined character, and refined character produces hope\u201d (Rom. 5:3-4). \u00a0Each of us is still upon the “Potter’s wheel,” and God\u2019s hand continues to shape us into vessels that one day will reveal his glory and honor. \u201cThe LORD will give strength to his people; the LORD will bless his people with peace\u201d (Psalm 29:11).<\/p>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/hebrew4christians.com\/training\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/psalm29-11-analysis.gif?resize=577%2C546&ssl=1\")
