I have a couple of family members going through some really difficult times right now, as I am sure we all do. We just never know when something is going to happen in our lives that changes everything. One moment we think we have our priorities in line, the next everything that seemed important five (5) minutes ago are no longer important.
I will never say that I know how you feel. Again, no one knows how anyone feels. We can empathize with one another. We can sympathize with others. We will never know how someone else truly feels. What I can do when things aren't going the way I thought they should, when things aren't going the way that I feel is right, is pray. GOD is the source of my strength.
Today's word is 2 Corinthians 5:7, KJV, which reminds us to keep trusting GOD: "For we walk by faith, not by sight."
If we focus only on what we see all around us, all the negativity exploding all around us, we will be so overcome with defeat that progress will halt. But, the Bible tells us in Hebrews that "faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." We may not know how everything is going to turn out, and it may be going completely opposite of anything we ever envisioned, but we can rest assured, we can have faith, that GOD has it all under control.
Let's pray for one another; life can be very difficult and changes quickly. Please pray for my family. Pray that GOD will remind us that He is GOD and He is good. Pray that we will all see Him working in our lives, and that we will not be overcome by all that we see. For, we walk by faith.
Be Blessed,
Mickey T
