"There is a wide-open door for a great work here, although many oppose me."
—1 Corinthians 16:9
Encouragement for Today
"Whenever we do something, especially if it has to do with changing people's minds and/or behavior, some will respond positively but others will oppose us. Knowing this can free us from trying to please everyone. Like Paul, we must discern what God is calling us to do, do it, and let the chips fall where they may. Then we can be at peace, knowing that it's God's work, not ours. "
—Diane Eble, author of Abundant Gifts: A Daybook of Grace-Filled Devotions
