As a struggling follower of Jesus, we
seem to be a country trying to entertain our way into prosperity, war our way into
peace, spend our way to wealth, and ride a road prepared by pleasure into
heaven.
But God’s word reminds us prosperity
does not come through lies{artificial endeavor}. War remains only war. Spending
more only works if it’s a gift of a Christ-generated Self. Only enjoying our
way to heaven may mean we are missing the struggles that are opportunities to spiritually
grow. We grow more through the challenges, and then we may rest in Christ. Still,
we may choose! God’s Grace provides any path!
Prayer:
Lord, sometimes, challenges seem too much,
but help us see the growth in all of them to go beyond circumstances as you
still hold our hand!
