Finding Comfort in a Crisis
Jehovah comforts whom Jehovah enlightens.

If we, by faith, accept the God described in the Bible, then we know that nothing can stop God’s overarching will for and in this world. Therefore, every circumstance of life must work together to execute God’s plans. Even the evil that men choose to do cannot escape His inexorable (unstoppable) will from being accomplished. It is only with this understanding that we can have hope rather than despair in the various tragedies, big and small, that beset our lives.
When we focus on the provision instead of The Provider we miss the purpose of the promise.
The Size of your Ego limits the Size of your Service.
Don’t be Overcome, be an Overcomer.
Only our best is good enough

We CAN overcome sin by continually submitting our will to God’s authority, by studying, memorizing and frequently contemplating God’s Word, so that it can transform us by replacing our human desires with Godly desires. Then God’s will and God’s plan will consummate in us to produce righteousness to the Glory of God.
Only as the Transformation/Sanctification takes place can we start to prove (know with certainty) the will of God. Without Transformation/Sanctification we cannot know God’s will. And so we stumble, taking uncertain steps in life: never quite sure what we are about, or what to do or where to go and how to get there. We have the Light but not the Sight.
