What kinds of blessings does God send our
way?
The
Lord is a shelter for the oppressed, a refuge in times of
trouble.
Psalm
9:9
Troubles come with a
multitude of names�accidents, afflictions, bereavement, calamities,
difficulties, disappointments, tribulations, troubles, or woes.
Adversity literally means "something acting against you." Nowhere is
this concept more clearly presented than in the Bible, which makes it clear
that God himself sometimes sends adversity either as a punishment for sin or
simply as a way to test and strengthen our character. Other times Satan
sends adversity to try to get us to sin. And God allows it. And sometimes we
bring adversity on ourselves by acting foolishly or sinfully. And finally,
there is the adversity that comes out of nowhere through no fault of our
own. The one thing you can count on about adversity is that it will come. We
all have troubles, so it is not a matter of will we or won't we�the issue is
what we will do with adversity when it comes.
All
scripture is from the New Living Translation (Tyndale House Publishers,
1996).
