In the times when we wonder, we have the greatest opportunities to grow. If we trust God in these times, many things happen. Cliches turn into convictions. Lackadaisical faith becomes fervent devotion. Anxiety gives way to peace.
Resentment gives way to love.
And yes, frustration, disappointment, and discouragement give way to the sweet confidence that is known as faith, and manifested as joy. I wish it was a simple one time decision . . It's a choice we have to make again and again and again. There will be times when it will be easier to give in. There will be times when it will give more immediate gratification to strike back in vengeance.
