We might think that God's blessings should always lead us into the way of peace and happiness. But this is not always the case. God's blessings can also be the preparation for battle, the strength for fight, the provision for the difficult journey, the enabling for the challenge, the power to face the enemy and the grace to resist the temptation. While we may wish for the smooth pathway, even in the rugged places God has promised to go before us. (SD)
PRAYER: Lord, I expected peace, but instead the battle rages. Help me to change my expectation of what ought to be so that i can face reality without bitterness or fear, but with the hope that you will see me through. Amen
