Whenever Trouble Comes Your Way



Hopefully we are making our way out of the worst of the COVID19 pandemic and putting much of it behind us. 
It definitely has been trouble for nearly all of us in one way or another; for some, it’s been quite the trial and our faith has been tested. 
Looking over the past six or more months, what new joys have you discovered? How has your endurance grown? What strengths do you now find in your character that were not there a few months ago?
Some might wonder if this is really over or will this virus make a turn for the worst? If so, have the joys you have discovered and endurance you have grown in given you hope that with God you are now much better prepared for whatever the future might hold?
Take a few minutes to journal your thoughts. 
“...whenever trouble comes your way, let it be an opportunity for joy. For when your faith is tested, your endurance has a chance to grow. So let it grow, for when your endurance is fully developed, you will be strong in character and ready for anything.”
James 1:2-4 (NLT

  Be Happily Married It was our wedding day, the very day I had dreamed about since I was a little girl.  I wore a beautiful wedding gown chosen just for this dream come true and I carried a parasol covered in daisies, my favorite flower.  My heart was filled with joy and anticipation as I walked down the aisle to become Mrs. to my knight in shining armor.  That day was thirty-eight years ago and I still have my wedding gown, my parasol, and my knight in shining armor.  People don’t talk much about marriage these days and for many the subject is accompanied by pain; the pain and disappointment of divorce, broken families, loneliness, parental abandonment, and other issues that we find uncomfortable.  Sometimes it is the pain of our parents marriage, and often it’s the pain we have experienced in our own relationships.  For these reasons many have decided that there is not enough value in marriage to pursue one, and too often couples have placed the...
