PARABLE:  
OLD STORY: The Lady or the Tiger by Frank Stockton. Should WARN us:  Stop banging on doors God has closed!
God KNOWS when the door we want holds DANGER behind it! 

Trust >
God's got a great plan for you & will guide IN TIME...
WAIT thru your Selah times (see Psalms including 46:10)....

What does LORD God say ??  
Most of us know Proverbs 3:5-6, TRUST with ALL your heart AND!...
See Isaiah 41:10 > God-named-YHWH (= "I AM") comforts:
       "Do not fear for I AM with you.
        Do NOT anxiously look about you, for I AM your God.
I will strengthen you, SURELY. I will help you, SURELY. I will uphold you with My righteous right hand." -- Literal Hebrew NASB. https://www.blueletterbible.org/nasb/isa/41/10/t_conc_720010 ...

LADY OR THE TIGER  STORY SUMMARY >> https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=1522297181231337&set=a.238113272983074.56541.100003532086038&type=3

SO WHAT ??
Yes... it's easy to get discouraged ESPECIALLY when seeking to SERVE GOD or
to do something you're sure He would approve of....
But Faith trusts in God REGARDLESS of what is happening...
and DOES NOT keep banging on closed doors trying to "outwit" God & open them.


Prayer: 
LORD please help me when I am impatient AND discouraged.... and forgive me.
Thank you for forgiving me. And thank you for CLOSING doors that are bad for me...
or just not at the RIGHT TIME to be opened. Help me remember:
You, who love me, knows best.
