Good Morning! You are not in the trouble you think you’re in! God has orchestrated this trouble to be your training. The trouble is an exercise to show you your level of maturity (Romans 12:2).

You may be praying that God get you out of the very thing He is using to teach you something! Stop and consider the purpose in your trouble? Knowing that God’s plan for you is divine, is peace beyond normal understanding (Philippians 4:7)! You cannot serve God without developing Spiritual Senses.
