My mind is on a time when our daughter was causing us some trouble. A pastor we were under said, "Ya'll could move and start over somewhere else."
I told him, "We aren't going to move. Everyone that has seen her failures can also watch her victories." That has certainly taken place - the victories!
Unless God releases us from a situation, we need to see it through. We recently went through a situation that is over now, BUT my husband and I were talking about some things that came to light this past week that we were not aware of. The scripture came to me, "....seducers shall wax worse and worse..."
We will see men fail us on a larger degree and the more, as we see the day approaching. I know you will agree that we need His direction more than ever!

Yes, I do agree. Running from problems never fixes anything but, sometimes leaving is the right thing to do and if you don't leave when you are supposed you, you are wrong in that too. So, people should consider both sides to that.
