ROMANS 8:28
You are angry, confused, and frustrated. This all creates your depression. I allow the surprises to surface, not to confound you with hasty judgments or to harass you, but to teach you!
Have you heard of "rolling with the punches?" Perhaps, "bouncing back!" Or even "taking things in stride?" These are habits and behaviors the Lord is teaching you now!
He desires you to be resilient and filled with uncompromising, even tough faith that doesn't dissipate quickly or easily! The Lord also wants you to laugh at yourself while still liking who you are!
Faith is not idealism. Faith is realism rooted in a settled joy that all things work together for your good!
Today's training is ingraining this conviction. Rejoice and be glad in it!!
Love,
Your Heavenly Father
