1 Samuel 24-25, John 10:22-42, Psalms 116:1-19, Proverbs 15:20-21
What God said to me – There are situations in life that are “win-win” where either both sides win, or you win no matter what option you choose. That’s a great position to be in, but most of the time that’s not where you find yourself. Then there is the “no-win” situation known as the catch 22 – it’s a paradox – a dilemma with no apparent solution – you need experience to get a job, but you can’t get a job because you don’t have any experience. It’s a continuous circle. My Son, Jesus, faced a dilemma when questioned by the Jews. They asked Him to plainly tell them if He was the Christ – if He said yes, then they would stone Him for blasphemy, but if He said no, then He would be committing blasphemy. However, He was totally committed to following My will and He trusted My plan and My sovereignty, so He stood firmly and didn’t waver no matter the cost. In your life you may be faced with such a dilemma where when you stand firm in your faith, you may have to pay a great price. Never forget that you are in My hand and nothing can take you out of it. Trust in My plan and in My sovereignty and stand firm.
