Message summary & scripture references
Unfortunately, as we are living life and working on our callings, we will experience trying situations. Maybe you will become physically ill, perhaps you will experience a death of a close friend or family member, or maybe there will be a financial emergency. These curve balls in life have the potential to knock us off the paths of our callings. In today’s Daily Word, we examine the scriptures to see how Jesus dealt with life’s curve balls, so we can learn from His example.
