Faith helps us
Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take. (Proverbs 3:6 NLT)
This is a time of great change in the world: technological, economic, religious, political, business, and environmental. Change is touching all spheres of society. Everyone knows that it is rough to go through, but when the difficulties are weighed against the benefits that the changes bring about, most agree that it is well worth it.
Much of the benefit that we derive from change depends on how we look at it and whether we embrace it or not. Attitude is a key factor. Attitude can make the difference between succeeding despite difficulty or succumbing to it. Being positive gives us buoyancy and skill in riding waves of change that we wouldn’t have otherwise been able to.
If we can focus on the positive aspects of change and look at all the emotional, physical, and spiritual challenges as necessary means to get us to our destination, we can actually enjoy the trip. Life is a journey, and change, even big change, is a part of life’s “equation.”
As we follow the Lord and strengthen our faith through His Word, we can trust that a positive outcome will occur regardless of the circumstances. Faith helps us through difficult times.
As Christians, we have the advantage of the Bible and God’s words in other literature. We have prayer (whether it be private or from others), personal prophecy, praise, and meditation to assist us during these times. [1]
We need God’s guidance whether we are at a certain crossroad, making life changing, path altering decisions, or as we go through the day. - Shannon Scott
