Famine

Famine

In the world there is little or no famine for the one who is not only in the world but of the world as well.

But for the person who is in the Way of Obedience to God, there will sometimes be famine.

For by comparison there is little or no trial in the world, whereas in the Way of Obedience there may be much trial.

YET however great is the trial, with God there is Always…Outlet.

1 CORINTHIANS 10.13 No temptation has taken you—except that of man; and God is faithful, who will not permit you to be tempted above what you are able, but He will make, with the temptation, also the outlet, for your being able to bear [it].
