Wednesday

You’ll remember, friends, that when I first came to you to let you in on God’s master stroke, I didn’t try to impress you with polished speeches and the latest philosophy. I deliberately kept it plain and simple: first Jesus and who he is; then Jesus and what he did—Jesus crucified.

I was unsure of how to go about this, and felt totally inadequate—I was scared to death, if you want the truth of it—and so nothing I said could have impressed you or anyone else. But the Message came through anyway. God’s Spirit and God’s power did it, which made it clear that your life of faith is a response to God’s power, not to some fancy mental or emotional footwork by me or anyone else. (‭‭1 Cor‬ ‭2:1)

We’ve all found out that we can only play the ‘woe is me’ card for so long before it begins to get boring – even to us!

Instead of looking through the natural clouded view of jealousy, bitterness and depression, we should ask the Holy Spirit to help us see the miracle(s) that He’s been constantly weaving all around us. Once you ‘see’ the threads of His Life, Hope will rise and your life of faith will grow so much that by the time the next challenge comes, you’ll be ready, KNOWING that GOD is in this with me. I am not alone. ❤️
