Even when we choose to highlight the bad, we can still choose to highlight it in a way that says that we trust God and we believe God. We ought to highlight our lives as one that is totally surrendered. As one that trusts God "no matter what". One of the things we must all learn how to do is what the Bible says in Philippians 4:12. We must learn how to be abase and how to abound.
When you are abase, you are of a humble and of a lower rank. You may be in a place where others may try to degrade you but it doesn't affect you because you know God is with you just as He is with you when you abound with blessings. When you have learned how to be abase and how to abound, it doesn't change your trust and belief in God no matter which state you are in.
We have to understand that it is not just our good moments that God will use in our lives. We have to know that His Word says that He will work everything in our lives together for the good of those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. You have to know that you are called according to God's purpose and you have to know that no matter what is happening in your life right now, God will take it and work it together for your good.
SCRIPTURE MEDITATION
Philippians 4:12
I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.
