Food For Thought: As we follow Jesus we are going to face moments of great distress. At times it will seem that events conspire to cause us to stumble in our relationship with Him. We don’t always initiate them they arise sometimes because of our circumstances, nevertheless, failure is the end results. We may fear that our failure has caught God by surprise. He already knows. He has made provision to respond every time we stumble, don’t think that somehow our failure is bigger or more complex that God can’t handle it.
So, if you are facing challenges that seem overwhelming, don’t be discouraged. God has already foreseen them and prepared for them.
