Misery into Ministry

"Now those who were scattered went about preaching the word." -- Acts 8:4
What do we do when events turn in an unexpected way? How do we deal with the troubling phases of life that move us out our comfort zone? Do we languish over the hardships or do we look for new doors of opportunity to spread the gospel?
The early church faced great persecution and suffered overwhelming upheaval. Believers were scattered to unknown regions, far from home, friends and family. Yet, rather than grieving, they preached the word where ever they went. They turned their misery into ministry.
Are you ready to find the opportunities in your struggles my friend? Is it possible that God may bring you into new territory just to bring good news to others? Take a moment and look for every way to turn your miseries into ministries.
