DB - Tuesday 24th February 2009 - Managing The Mess
Why do you call me Naomi, since the Lord has testified against me, and the Almighty has afflicted me? - Ruth 1:21
It is inevitable that at times we find ourselves in a mess. It may not necessary that is it by our negligence alone to allow a situation to be that way. In real life situation, we are exposed to many worldly demands that may unwittingly make us victims and we may have to suffer while managing these difficult situations. It is how we hold and carry ourselves during trying times that would separate us from the worldly standard and that from our Lord.
We must have faith and trust God. His teachings, love and purpose will elevate our morals. We can turn difficult situations into platforms for us to witness for our Lord. Practicing patience, calmness, humbleness, fairness and honesty before our Lord, seeking for His wisdom and guidance would offer to us great opportunity to have a better understanding of the situation and to act responsibly. In this way, we can stand tall and make that great difference. Yes, others will know that we are God's children by our love and how we react in difficult times.
Stand back and watch the Lord manage your mess into a glorious outcome.
