Sorrow and her grim family of sighs and tears may drop by for a visit, but they won't stay long when they realize that faith got their first, and doesn't plan to leave. (See Psalm 30:4-5)

Underneath my feelings of anger – there are concealed expectations. (I may not be aware of them myself.) Inside my angry statements – there are hidden demands. (I may not yet be able to put them into words.) Until I deal with the demands, I am doing little about it all.

There is a famine in the land – not the kind of famine sweeping across India or sections of Africa. This famine is virtually everywhere. Not a famine of food or water...not a famine of churches or religious ministries. This a famine like the one the ancient prophet mentioned – a famine of hearing the truth of the Word of God. (See Amos 8:11)

People are defeated by their crisis if they become their crisis, letting it rule their lives. The key is to recognize a crisis for what it is - a turning point and an opportunity.

The Sprit of God is the dynamic of life. Like air, the Spirit may be invisible – but let us never be mislead by equating invisible with impotent. This Spirit is vital to life. (See Joel 2:28)

Though you cannot return to the past to make a brand new start, you can always make a brand new start now, and a brand new ending.

To be like Jesus. That is our goal, plain and simple. It sounds like a peaceful, relaxing, easy objective. But stop and think. He learned obedience by the things He suffered. So do we. He endured all kinds of temptations. So must we. To be like Jesus is our goal. But it is neither easy or quick nor natural. It’s impossible in the flesh, slow in coming and supernatural in scope. Only Jesus can accomplish it within us. (See Matthew 4:1)
