Christian Actress Shares Mindset Shift to Keep God’s Glory No. 1
By Movieguide® Contributor
Priscilla Shirer and Candace Cameron Bure sat down to discuss how we can trust God amid life’s challenges.
“You don’t have to look hard to find challenges; you just keep living, and challenges are going to come find you,” Shirer explained on Bure’s Podcast. “Life is out here ‘lifing.’ It is doing a lot just with the current temperature that we live in culturally, and you know the issues that we’re facing corporately. It is just unbelievable the amount of pressures that we have that aren’t even connected with our personal private life, necessarily. They’re just around us.”
But, Shirer continued, no matter what we face, God is aware of it all.

“If we’re not looking at the trials that come with life as opportunities to be formed into the image of Christ, that nothing that has happened to us has escaped His view, He’s not shocked by what shocked us last week,” she explained.
“He’s not shocked. He’s still sitting on the throne. He still has us in mind and in heart. He’s still watching over us. That right there gives me so much of an anchor.”
Shirer continued, “If He’s allowed it, He is utilizing it for my good and for His glory.”
Bure chimed in, “That’s a huge perspective to have, that it’s going to be used for my good and for His glory. That’s one of those verses that you just have to keep repeating…over and remind yourself.”
Bure’s referencing Romans 8:28, which says, “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.”
