Days of distress

"It may be that the Lord will see my distress and repay me with good for the curse I am receiving today."

2 Samuel 6:12

It's no fun when you feel like you cannot do anything right and everyone notices as well as tells you about it.  However, if you can step outside of yourself and look at it as a way of learning and growing in Christ, then the mistakes you do and the cursing you receive may just turn out to be some of the best blessings and milestones you could ever have asked for.

My words, my voice

“The tongue can no man tame; it is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison… out of the same mouth proceedeth blessing cursing.  My brethren, these things ought not so to be.”

James 3:8-10

Dear Lord,

Be my words, be my voice, keep me out of my flesh.

God is with you

“… they even hired Balaam to work against them by cursing them, but our God turned the curse into a blessing…” 

Nehemiah 13:1-3, MSG

With God before you no one can stand against you: with God on yours side, no worldly human can ruin God’s good plan for you.  

Don’t give up, God is with you.
