Born of Frustration

Oh, taste and see that the Lord is good; blessed is the man who trusts in Him! Psalm 34:8

Working in sales, I have experienced some high-highs and some low-lows over the past 16 years of my career path.  Just last year, the first eight months were spectacular-my team and I were blessed and exceeded our sales goals by the end of the summer.  From August until December, things were just downright dismal, much like Auburn's 2015 football season, but at least we finished the year on a high note as things got better.  (At least my Carolina Panthers have had a remarkable regular season!) 

Much the same, I truly believe that the reason God allows us to experience trials and sorrow in our lives is so that we might learn that He has the power to sustain and provide for us all things that produce earthly blessings.  All of God’s children go through storms in their journeys through life.

We must remember that it is while we are in the “ going through” stages of any crisis or trial that God’s peace becomes clear to all.  Praise be to God!
