Life

I want to know how it's possible one day to be not crushed, not in despair, not forsaken, not destroyed one day and the very next day to be hard-pressed, perplexed, persecuted, struck down. Where am I going wrong to let this happen to me? I want to be continually content with my state of being, continually living unto death for Jesus' sake.

For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.

Dear Unck...
I can't tell you how it is possible, but I can tell you that it is inevitable, and survivable.
I don't know if contentment is really possible, but you will not be forsaken, even if you should for a season forsake, and although you may not be content, you can be at peace in the midst of the storm. Someone emailed me a little "ditty" and I don't go in for little ditties much, but this one rang true...Don't tell God how big the storm is, tell the storm how big your God is!
By the way, just what conclusion did you come to concerning intersessory prayer? Blessings from New Mexico
