In
life’s journey, cruel, bad things happen to good people because evil exists in
the hearts and minds of those whose mission is to harm others. Justifiable
punishment is right for those who perpetrate evil on the undeserving. Blaming
others for our lack of achievement and failing to be accountable is often a
defense for lack of courage and faith.
The majority of the men whom Moses
sent to survey the land God promised believed Israel was incapable of taking it
from the giants who possessed it. Listen to their exaggerated analysis.
"The people living there are powerful giants and their cities are
fortified and well defended." They believed God was incapable helping them,
so they exaggerated the obstructions.
They blamed
God for placing impossible barriers in their way and believed death awaited
them if they engaged the giants who possess the land. They failed to trust in
God's provision and protection. Whatever you’re facing, believe "you can
do all things through Christ who will empower you to do what appears impossible."
