Pastor Ford explains that in order for suffering to be remedial, then what we have to realize is that we need to quit looking at the circumstances, and also quit looking at Satan. Instead, we have to start looking at the Savior! We have to begin by saying, “I know that God is controlling this thing.” And then we have to trust that He is going to get us through whatever we are facing.

Suffering always has significance. God allows us to go through what we’re going through to develop in us something that is lacking in our character and to strengthen our walk with Him. And when we endure suffering, that’s when we find that we become more mature spiritually.

When we become involved in ministry at our local church, we need to remember Who we’re working for. That it’s God Who has called us to this work and ultimate we’ll be accountable to Him. God has gifted each of us in special ways and has given us the things that He wants us to do.

As we continue our study in the book of James, Pastor Ford will ask us to consider this question—even though we’re going through something right now, are we more committed to Jesus’ purpose than we are to getting out of our pain?

When will followers of Christ be encouraged to serve in their local congregations? When they begin to understand that God has led them to the place where they worship, not just to get food from His Word. God led them there to work. And as Pastor Ford will remind us today, that’s all because we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus, to do good work!

As we begin a study in Colossians 4, Pastor Ford will remind us today that followers of Christ are called to get involved with ministry at their local church. The church needs more people who utilize their gifts and are faithful in service—those who say, “God called me to this and I’m going to do this to the best of my God-given abilities. I may not always do it right. But I’m going to keep doing it until I get it right.”
