[Ecc 9:11 KJV] I returned, and saw under the sun, that the race [is] not to the swift, nor the battle to the strong, neither yet bread to the wise, nor yet riches to men of understanding, nor yet favour to men of skill; but time and chance happeneth to them all.
[Ecc 9:12 KJV] For man also knoweth not his time: as the fishes that are taken in an evil net, and as the birds that are caught in the snare; so [are] the sons of men snared in an evil time, when it falleth suddenly upon them.
We all have discouraging times when very little seems to be breaking our way. When the drip of little thing after little thing becomes a dark ominous cloud letting forth a torrential downpour on our heads. While others lead a charmed life all the time it seems. That is a lie.
Everyone experiences their troubles; if they aren't right now, they probably soon will be. Keep your focus and your steps heavenward. Christ is our blessed hope.
