Guidance on direction to serve Him and best help others.My Daily Journal:I think sometimes non-christians think the life of a dedicated christian is one of boredom and self-denial. Stay away from anything risky. Sit in church and sing boring hymns and go to sewing circles and spend lots of time being pious and uppity.In reality, a walk of faith is a walk through a battleground. God does not promises long walks on the beach and floating on clouds. You don’t need a shield on a beach. You don’t need angels telling you to “do not be afraid” on a cloud. While God does not promise a life without difficulty, He does tell us that He will protect us. I love the Psalm 91:4 verse, to enclose me in feathers, under his wings, to find refuge there. That by His faithfulness and His righteousness (not mine, but His) I will be protected. If life was a walk in the park, how would we learn to rely on God. It is only by allowing us to experience adversity does God teach us to rely on Him and only by learning to rely on Him do we find salvation.
