Unexpected Trials will invade every family. That’s life. How we live during times of ease and blessing can fortify our family to face rather than fear the unexpected. Part one describes the foundational fortification to be practiced during those times of ease. When calamity strikes, this foundation holds our splintering emotions together to wait expectantly on the God who controls all things.

In Part 1, we were reminded of God's greatness and His promise to fill our needs when we open our mouths wide to Him. However, in Part 2, we see that God's people did not accept His invitation. What are the reasons that hindered them and us from accepting His invitation? And even when we refuse His invitation, we see that in God's grace, He keeps the invitation open.

Why do we hesitate to ask God to do something that seems beyond the realm of possibility? In Psalm 81, He extends an invitation for us to open our mouths wide, promising to fill them when we listen and obey. This call challenges us to bring forth our seemingly insurmountable struggles, be it a broken relationship, a lost loved one, health issues, or financial burdens and present them to God in faith. It's an opportunity to step into the realm of the miraculous by daring to ask for the impossible. So, what are you facing today that appears unattainable? Take a moment to reflect and consider opening your mouth wide in faith, asking God to intervene in ways that defy human understanding.
