Sounds like a boring title, right? Even the concept when thought upon is the kind of thought that we already know yet when understood in real application becomes fully realized.
There have been many situations as of late in my life that I thought that would have been super easy to overcome. You know, little things, small issues, minor confrontations, etc. In my mind before such things came about I honestly felt like I was ready for as we say “anything”. When a person is in the preparation phase you tend to have a great lot of faith and confidence that seems to flee when trouble decides to come around! As we read this passage:
Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil, of the Jew first, and also of the Gentile; But glory, honour, and peace, to every man that worketh good, to the Jew first, and also to the Gentile: For there is no respect of persons with God. (Romans 2:9-11)
I know and am thankful for the balance that God created for all of us. When people act as though they are better than you, please know and remember that this is behavior that is out of balance of the word of God. I encourage you to use the great love of God to overcome any situations where you feel this kind of act coming against you.
Knowing that God had no respect of person humbles me to know that when God delivered me from my addictions that I found God the same as one who may have failed less than I. I am also thankful that even when people choose not to embrace the power of worship that this does not prohibit the ability for others to enjoy it also.
Here is the revelation that God gave me: there is no situation where God does not provide the balance for us. None!
As we pray and seek God greater there is a comfort in times of trouble, peace in times when we lack understanding, and joy as our strength when we are in a state of weakness:
And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus. (Philippians 4:7)
So in closing I would strongly urge you to never forget that you always have God and even when it seems the situation is lopsided that God is there watching over all with no respect of person. In fact, that same love he shares for all will bring us together as we learn to live in his love!
