When Trouble Comes to Our Door
Sometimes trouble enters our lives
without warning.
A difficult conversation.
Bad news.
A loss we did not see coming.
And when these moments appear,
we often ask:
“How did this happen?”
“Could this have been avoided?”
“What do we do now?”
First Epistle of Peter reminds us,
“Beloved, do not be surprised
at the fiery ordeal
that is taking place among you…”
— from First Epistle of Peter 4:12
The text does not teach us
to love suffering.
But it does remind us
that some challenges
are part of life,
and even in hardship
we are still being formed.
Earlier in the letter,
our lives are compared to gold
being refined by fire.
And while the text
does not encourage us
to seek hardship,
it does encourage us
not to collapse in fear
when hardship comes.
And to move through it
with courage,
endurance,
and trust.
