| Catch the Little Foxes |

| THE SCRIPTURE |
| “Catch for us the foxes, the little foxes that ruin the vineyards, our vineyards that are in bloom.” |
| (Song of Solomon 2:15, NIV) |

| THE WORD |
|
Everyone has opportunities to get upset and be
frustrated every single day. Sometimes it’s the little things — we can’t
find the car keys, traffic is backed up, somebody was rude, or what
should have taken an hour ends up taking four hours. Something happened
and now you are frustrated and all bent out of shape. There will always
be something that can sour your day, but if you are going to live in
victory, you have to maintain the right approach. You can’t let the
little foxes spoil the vine. In other words, don’t let the little things
in life spoil the harvest God has for your future.
I’ve heard it said, “Life is 10% what happens to you
and 90% how you respond.” Make sure you respond to life with an attitude
of faith and expectancy. Sure, things may irritate you, but don’t let
that irritation last into the next moment. Let it go. Don’t try to
control everything around you. Instead, release it to God knowing that
His plans are for your good, and He is leading and guiding you in the
path of blessing.
