Setbacks happen to us all. Things don't go the way they should, and progress is stalled. Discouragement comes knocking at the door, and you are tempted to invite it in for the evening. Don't do it. Learn to see God's hand of grace even in the difficult times, like David did: “You prepare a table for me in the presence of my enemies” (Psalm 23:5).
• Ask God to show you the silver lining of His grace in your dark cloud today.
God isn't fickle. He doesn't play tricks on His children. He isn't trying to mess with your mind. He doesn’t want you stuck in the pit of discouragement. Instead He wants you to trust Him even when the circumstances don't make sense. Job had to do that. So did all the great ones of the faith. Eventually, with God's help, your setback will turn into a comeback, and you will be able to say with David, “my cup overflows” (23:5). It is just a matter of time and patience.
