Today has not been an ideal day. I woke up wondering what the day would hold and so far it hasn't been anything wonderful. I am having trouble with email, it won't work at all. I am keeping kids apart while trying to work, and am generally feeling frustrated.
Surprisingly enough, I was preparing a lesson about winning and losing in the game of life. And there isn't anything in scripture that says life will be easy, that as a follower of Jesus you will win all the time. it seems to be the opposite in fact. 2 Corinthians 1 talks about when we are weighed down with troubles and trials God bring us His comfort to help us through.
I have to admit, I wish life would go more smoothly than it does. Not that it's all bad. I think the worst of it is the mental fatigue it can bring. Sometimes I am not very good at letting go. Thank God He doesn't let go of us either. I think unloading our frustrations at the Father's feet might be a good place to start, and then look at his promises in scripture to be with us, and help us through to the other side of the situation is a good second.
