Comfort in Affliction

Seek my face; in their affliction they will seek me early. Hosea 5:15

Has not My hand fashioned for you many signs and wonders? Have I not ministered to you in miraculous ways? Will you not, then trust Me now in this new emergency, even as you have trusted Me in the past?

Lean hard upon Me, for I bring you through to new victories, and restoration shall follow what seems now to be a wind of destruction. Draw upon the resources of My grace. Heaven rejoices when you go through trials with a singing spirit.

 

Reflecting on challenges of the past, and how God has met us and our needs, he will do the same again, because he has promised to supply our every need.  When we grumble and complain we only make it more difficult for him to help us.  We can think of how we feel when someone complains to us.  Do we like it? Does he like it? NO!  A happy attitude about life is what he desires, the problems will resolve, whether we are happy or grumbling, they will just be a lot more pleasant to experience if we are happy.

This camp is usually a fun experience, there are new people and we get to know each other, one of the ladies was raised on the mission field, as was her husband(Venzuala) the other lady, lives in Minneapolis, and her husband teaches Dakota at the University of Minnesota,  She is white he is Native American  Little Isaiah came to me last night, he is missing his parents.  We will see how he is today.
