Think back to a time when you experienced a difficult change or something didn’t go as planned. Was it when you didn’t get the spot on the team, or maybe one of your friends moved away? There are times in our lives when things don’t go our way, or we experience difficult change, and that can be hard to know how to deal with it. In this verse, Peter is saying that life won’t always go the way we want it to, but we can trust that God is faithful to help us walk through this and that there is a purpose for what we are going through. The way it is now is not the way it will always be. There is a reason to hope for better days ahead.

This week make a list of how you have seen God be faithful that can serve as a reminder to trust Him when you experience difficult circumstances.
