If you have 23 odds and ends on a table, and 22 of them fall off, what do you have left: An odd or an end? Does this question have an answer?
Life is filled with daily routines and perplexing questions. If you are feeling the weight of the day-in and day-out grind you may be in God’s process of learning the lessons of small things. Pray that you will be faithful. "Who despises the day of small things?" (Zechariah 4:10)
You may be struggling through great troubles and trials at this moment in time. C.H. Spurgeon wrote: a gem is not polished without rubbing, nor are godly men and women made without trials. Think about it. Haven’t the greatest strides in your spiritual journey always come during times of significant difficulty and hardship? “Many men and women owe the grandeur of their lives to their tremendous difficulties.”
A pearl to string: Being happy doesn't mean everything's perfect. It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfection! God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but HE did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears & light for the way.
“On the day I called you answered me; you increased the strength of my soul”. (Psalm 138:3)
Every now and then, God takes us to the mountaintop to experience His presence in a dramatic way. Such a time is near. I wait in Holy anticipation.
May His blessing befall upon you and
May the strength of your soul be increased
In His Sonshine.
You are loved,
Lyndi
