I woke up this morning feeling the worse. I kinda knew last night that I was going to be feeling a little under the weather. I actually felt it coming while I was in NY, but I kept it moving and saw it as something I knew was not bigger than me and would not hold me back. My obstacle I foresaw in this instance was a cold, what is the obstacle you are foreseeing or you foresaw? How did you handle it? I now many people who see obstacles coming and buckle. They simple just fall apart. Me on the other hand, I first thank God for the heads up (because many times things happen and I didn't expect it), and I prepare accordingly.
For my cold, I have began taking medicine. I have started dressing in layers. I am eating chicken noodle soup. What if you have seen financial trouble coming? What have you done to prepare. When we stay in His Word, God gives us the wisdom to know when an obstacle is on the way and to prepare accordingly. He teaches us how to not only prepare but how to endure and go through it. I cannot stress the importance of reading your Bible and actually studying. God gives us the Word as one of the most powerful tools to conquering evil and obstacles. It is up to us to utilize what he has given us to get through situation. I am sure that there are situations that you see coming whether it be a unfaithful mate, an ill parent, or a layoff at work. Prepare while it is far off. Make sure you are ready. Thank God for opportunity to foresee it all.
Proverbs 27:11
11 Become wise, dear child, and make me happy;
then nothing the world throws my way will upset me.
Until Next time...
