Not Alone: Circumstance
October 26, 2017
Today determines tomorrow. Right? Not for Christ Followers. our circumstance does not define our destination. I learned more intimately this lesson from studying 11 widows in the Bible. Some remarried, some did not. Some were hungry, some married into wealth, some had nothing. Let these women earn your respect, then learn from them, as I have. Some today are referred to as adulterers, prostitutes, some unnamed and rarely held up as admirable women.
I see them differently.
Their stories reach into lives of those not women or widows. Their example through extraordinary challenges birthed boldness, industry, and courage in my own heart, and a place in the most read book of all time.
They teach us that our circumstance does not define our destination.
