The Sting of Favor August 5

I recall a comic strip I saw years ago. It was of a man riding an elephant into town and he was so proud of his magnificent creature. Everyone else was just out walking their dog or cat, but he had this beauty to show off. In one scene, the owner of the dog had a little poop-scooper while comparatively the owner of the elephant held a huge shovel!



I used to live 10 minutes from the beach and I absolutely loved it! I was able to go visit the sand and the rushing waves any time I wanted, and I did! There wasn't a weekend where I wasn't staring at the ocean! I live in a more central location now, and I visited the beach just recently, and it pained me to see the water and the ocean-view, remembering that time, wondering why I left. And then God whispered the answer to me. I remember living by the beach and it would storm, hail and rain a lot. The flooding was unlike anything I've ever seen! I would have to move my small car to a more higher altitude so that it wouldn't "drown". Driving to work, cars would be stuck off to the side as I barely made it to my destination!





There's a line from Aladdin that really sticks out to me.

Aladdin: You want to be a genie? You got it! And everything that goes with it!



It comes down to...taking the good in with the bad. Just remeber this when you are getting exactly what you want. There is a price tag to favor.



If you need prayer for anything, let me know. I would love to pray for you!
