The View From The End
June 3, 2014
Read: Deuteronomy 8:1-3, 11-16
Over the course of one year, Richard LeMieuxs lucrative publishing business collapsed. Soon, his wealth disappeared, and he became depressed. Eventually, LeMieux began to abuse alcohol and his family deserted him. At the lowest point in his life, he was homeless, broken, and destitute. However, it was during this time that he turned to God. He later wrote a book about what he learned.
The Israelites learned some valuable spiritual lessons when God allowed them to endure homelessness, uncertainty, and danger. Their hardships humbled them (Deut. 8:1-18).
They learned that God would provide for their needs. When they were hungry, He gave them manna. When they were thirsty, He gave them water from a rock. God taught them that, despite difficult times, He could bless them (v.1). Finally, the Israelites learned that adversity is not a sign of abandonment. Moses reminded them that God had been leading throughout their 40 years in the wilderness (v.2).
When we encounter desperate times, we can look for the spiritual lessons embedded in our difficultieslessons that can help us rely on the One who causes all things to work together for our good and for His glory (Rom. 8:28).
Dear God, please give me the faith
to believe that You can bring good out of
any situation. Help me to see what You
want to show me during adversity.
The clearest view of everything that happens comes from heaven.
Remembering the hunger Israel experienced during their 40 years in the wilderness, Moses told them it was to do you good in the end (Deut. 8:16). What good? To make you know that . . . man lives by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Lord (v.3). Some lessons are best learned through trials and understood in perspective.

Here is a Gershwin standard that you could sing from a bar stool. Even Sinatra was in awe of her voice.

Gee, that looks familiar. :)
My son called today. He’s flying in to San Diego from Camp Johnson in North Carolina on the 14th. I’m going to pick him up and we’re going to tour around San Diego and then go to Pendleton to shop the PX. He has to fly back 30 days later to go to MOS school.
