Skewed- A biased or distorted way of looking at something

By God's grace we have entered a New Year! What will be your outlook for 2022? How will you see and receive what's to come?

It goes without saying that each day brings its own troubles that we cannot escape. Unfortunately, we cannot avoid problems, but when they come, we have to be careful how we judge them. Personally speaking, I can see problems as an unnecessary burden, or I can see them from God's perspective. From God's view, He allowed them for my good, for spiritual 
insight into who He is, for spiritual development, and for character building purposes. Grant it, we are not expecting a New Year to bring problems so soon, but we should brace ourselves for whatever comes.

Satan wants you and I to have a skewed view on the situations we're confronted with. Take for instance, Joseph. He could have looked at all the haters around him (his brethren) and retaliated in some way. He could have gone into 'pity mode' or he could have cast it all on the Lord God and prayed for grace to endure. Joseph definitely did the latter.

What I love about the Lord God is that He gives attention to detail, so whatever comes our way, it has already passed with His approval.  I may not know exactly why I find myself in a particular 
situation, but one comforting thing is that I am positive that nothing happens without God's permission.

The Apostle Paul said, "We are troubled on every side, yet not distressed; we are perplexed, but not  in despair, persecuted, but not forsaken; cast down, but not destroyed;" (2 Corinthians 4:8).

The Lord said, "I have told you these things so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world" (John 16:33).

God never said things would be easy for us, but He has promised to never leave us, or forsake us. He will be with us through it all.  So, as you begin this year, walk with God, pray without ceasing (keep being diligent in prayer more than once a day), and keep trusting!

Have A Blessed and Prosperous 2022!
