I can look at all the stresses at work and lose sight of what God is teaching me through it all. My strength must come from Him and not myself. It is so easy to focus on the negative, but so much harder to focus on the positive (benefits).
I think it is so in life as it is at work, so much easier to take a path of least resistance, but harder to actually do what is necessary to move forward along the path that God has lade out for me. The path that God has, is not always easy, but it is worth the climb. My human instinct wants easy, but in order for me to be the man of God I need to be, I am trained, taught, instructed and more.
When you look at the training that a soldier goes through, we don't ask why, because we know that they will face some challenges, but going through the testing first they learn and grow.
We Christians are the same, we are in a training camp of God, are we willing to take the test that He has for us or are they to difficult? We are in training and each struggle, each hardship we can either try to do it on our own or we can see that with God all things are possible, it isn't about my way, but your way Lord.
