You have rent or perhaps a mortgage. You have bills, too. You don't understand. They serve God. You serve God. What is the problem?
You just a breakthrough or a breakout. Ever feel like that? It's a constant swim upstream. Hmmmm...
You know salmon swim upstream, right? Have you ever tasted salmon? It's quite delicious. Something in the struggle makes for something better on the inside I do believe.
It's not the struggle that the matter. It's what you do in the struggle. I am going to admit. It's not always easy. Do I always face struggles and endure it with my chin up? No. Sometimes, I hate to say it, I pout. Yes, like a small child. I talk or sometimes even cry to God about the injustices of the world. But you know what? That is okay. Because something I learned the other day.
The enemy of our soul uses this to his advantage. Well, I am definitely not on "Team Satan". I sure don't want to hit any home runs for him! When I discovered this, it was like a revelation. After finding out that all he wants us to believe is that we are somehow cheated. Somehow God is withholding from us. He isn't. He delights to give us things and help us. I am becoming more confident in that. So, instead of "woe is me", it is going to be "whoa is me"! The blessings of the Lord are going to overtake me! I know it!
