1 Peter 4:11 If any man speak, let him speak as the oracles of God; if any man minister, let him do it as of the ability which God giveth: that God in all things may be glorified through Jesus Christ, to whom be praise and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.

When you have been losing the tinniest win is a move in the right direction. Recognizing and praising God in that tiny win is important. It might not be the big win you were hoping for but sometimes you forget to give credit where credit is due.

A starving man is grateful for another man’s discards. We forget that when we are abounding. Abasement teaches you to be grateful for God’s manna in the dry desert.

Philippians 4:12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and to be hungry, both to abound and to suffer need.

That is experience not theory. Some lessons are taught the hard way.

1 Thessalonians 5:17 Pray without ceasing.

I have never asked anything of my readership other than to study the Word in earnest and allow God to be your guide.

During this season of personal tribulations, I have a wonderful team of friends praying continually for me and my wife.

You may not know what is going on with us, but God does.

Romans 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.

May God be glorified in this time of prayer and supplication.
