When opportunities don't look the way we expect them to
I read a verse in Judges today made me stop.
Manoah and his wife challenged their son Samson when he chose a Philistine woman to marry. They said to him "Isn't there even one woman in our tribe or among all the Israelites you could marry? Why must you go to the pagan Philistines to find a wife?"
He ignored them, and insisted on the one he asked for. In Judges 14:4 it then reads "His father and mother didn't realise the LORD was at work in this, creating an opportunity to work against the Philistines, who ruled over Israel at the time."
In the face of a circumstance that appears TOTALLY contradictory to how we thought things were supposed to go...the LORD is at work in ways we can't see.
Trust that His purpose and plans will be fulfilled - no matter how things may appear on the surface.
