When one comes to a place of total abondonment, circumstances of life do not matter. It is like when the Jews were to enter the Promised Land and they sent scouts to check out the land (and their circumstances) and the report came back that the inhabitants of the land are much bigger than the Israelites! It was then that most wanted to turn back, but not Caleb and Joshua who said "then lets go move them out, because God is with us." Only two among all those people were totally sold out to God and His power, defying any opposition. The same was true with David and Goliath. When King Saul and the army didn't want to confront the giant, it was young David who said " who is this uncircumcised fellow that he threatens the Chosen People of God?"
It is when your God is bigger than your circumstances that you are allowed to experience God's power.
Daily Prayer: Father, help us to keep our eyes on You and not the lure of the world. Strengthen our faith in You so that when trouble comes we do not waiver. In Your Holy Name I pray Amen.
