God thank you for these days of trial and adversity. Thank you for working through them to empty me of my pride,
to challenge my love of comfort,
to destroy the stubborn illusion of control over my life and the world,
to teach me to rely on you,
to see your hand at work in unexpected ways,
to give me eyes to see needy people who are usually invisible,
to remind me of mortality and eternity,
and to show me even more of my savior’s love. Jesus was born into a world groaning under the curse of sin. That “Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us…” – – Galatians 3:13
