Daily Devotionals by Ardith Keef

      If you are going to follow the Lord, you must be ready to suffer.
     Yes, He loves to bless us, but often the richest blessings come in the
form of suffering.
     Soldier, don't look for trouble.  But when the Lord allows things that you 
have not brought on yourself, submit to the Lover of Your Soul, and let Him 
have full play.
     He knows what He is doing, and He has nothing in mind but your good.
