Have you ever considered at what point a test becomes so difficult that you decide you can no longer trust in God and you take over to solve the problem - why? Is our God too small? Lean and tough times are designed to grow deeper in our walk with God. Lately, I had been taking some things into my own hands that I needed to trust in God and resist the temptation to take over to solve the problem. I need to remind myself, I believe Lord, help my unbelief! Lean and tough times give us an opportunity to be there for one another. It may be a chance encounter. It may be a new friend or stranger. Perhaps it is an old friend that reaches out to you. Being there for one another is what makes a life worth living. The Lord designed us and meant for us to live in community with Him and with one another. Be there for someone today. And open the door when someone knocks to allow them to be there for you.
