Difficulty Can Be A Good Thing

Today's post is an excerpt from one of the devotions in my Women's Devotional Bible. Note: it doesn't just apply to women.

Sometimes, the things God promises for our future don't seem at all likely in light of what we're experiencing today. From our limited perspective, we don't see the big picture, only a tiny thumbnail print. We may be experiencing something difficult or uncomfortable that will result in something better.

It's important to remember that sometimes our troubles are only a momentary detour leading us to God's best for us.
