Psalms 60:1-12. Verses 3 and 4 KJV, when has God showed me hard things? When has he given me a banner of truth? Application for today?

Hebrews 11:17-19. Abraham’s unreserved faith in God’s resurrection power. If I had even a small fraction of that faith, what might become possible to me in serving the Lord today?
Luke 9:28-36. Jesus’ transfiguration. Why was Peter mistaken in his impulse to build three shines?
