Approaches to Life
An old Yiddish proverb says, “The girl who can’t dance says the band can’t play.” As believers we can take the same approach to life when things are not going right. We can easily complain “Life is not right for if it was I would not be going through what I’m going through.”
But let us not forget that what we experience in life is not a collection of random circumstances. We are people of purpose and God has promised to use everything we encounter for His glory and for our benefit in the process (Romans 8:28—“We know that God is always at work for the good of everyone who loves him. They are the ones God has chosen for his purpose.”).
So, take a moment and consider once more our memory verse for this month—
“Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary.”
—Galatians 6:9
