Like David, with his sheep ... Learn your lessons well in the schoolroom of obscurity. God is preparing you as His chosen arrow. As yet your shaft is hidden in His quiver, in the shadows ... but at the precise moment ... He will reach for you and launch you to that place of His appointment.

Sometimes, many times, give up your right to be offended. You'll live longer.
The Lord is the treasure in the "clay pot" of our redeemed humanity. He is to be the "excellent power" in our lives. He is the one we are to trust as our strength for daily living. When the battles become fierce, trust in the Lord.
