SCRIPTURE
Every valley shall be exalted, and everymountainandhill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain (Isaiah 40:4).
WORD OF ENCOURAGEMENT
Most of us ask God for His divine wisdom in the decisions we make. We also couple that with our natural human wisdom that God gives us. Wisdom is an important key in navigating the course of life, and the Bible tells us it’s the principle thing to have (see Prov. 4:7). However, in addition to wisdom we also sometimes need the circumstances around us to settle! We need things to smooth out so we aren’t spending countless hours trying to navigate rough waters. We can call on the Lord and ask Him to smooth out the rough places before us so by the time we get there it will be smooth sailing. Psalm 23:2 says He will lead you beside still waters. That means He eases the challenges. Yes, challenges do come, but life isn’t to be a constant battle with difficult things. Exercise your faith today for the path before you to be eased and challenges made smooth in Jesus’ Name!
