Every believer has a way they tend to respond to difficult situations. Some just “hunker-down,” grit their teeth, and try to survive. Others immediately begin to feel helpless, as if there is nothing they can do about it. Many pray for a miracle. This week I want to tell you what Everyone Needs and nearly no one wants when facing difficulty: wisdom. The Bible actually tells us when facing difficulty we should seek wisdom, not a miracle. But the paradox is this; wisdom will always lead you to a miraculous outcome. Since wisdom comes from the mouth of the Lord, seeking wisdom always starts by connecting intimately to God and listening for His still, small voice. Join me this week and let’s discover God’s prescription for overcoming stress, difficulty, testing, trials, and temptation.
