Have you ever noticed that the things of God are often paradoxes? He uses the weak to defeat the strong, the foolish to confound the wise, and He puts the first last and the last first. And the things of God are good and honest. When things happen God’s way, everyone feels better. When things happen God’s way no one loses. That doesn’t happen by man’s way. So this is why the things of this world don’t make sense. This is why so many of man’s ideas have a bad result.
You can use this to test the things around you. Look at children’s games. Someone wins, and someone loses. Look at the losers face, and see how unhappy that makes the child. When we are grownups, similar situations occur. One person wins the lottery, and is very happy. Thousands of people lose and are unhappy: proof that lotteries are not part of God’s plan.
God makes win-win results. We all win, no one looses. This is why salvation is available for all, no one gets left out, we can all be winners. God has enough Blessings to give to everyone. God never runs out of Blessings and has to say: “Come back in a week, after the next delivery”. What in the world works this way?

Mmmm...so true. Even as Mature Christians we can still find ourselves fighting that battle daily.
