Something Good?

I want something good to happen. My Mother always told me the best things come right after the of bad things...you know, the dark before the dawn. It seems as though things, roadblocks if you will, keep stacking up in front of me. I am starting to get tired!


In "The Screwtape Letters," A budding demon writes his Uncle Wormwood about a man who is doing all the right things when faced with adversity. Wormword's nephew just can't seem to get the man to fall away from "the enemy," God. Wormword encourages his Nephew to keep pressuring the man.
"...Whatever he says, let his inner resolution be not to bear whatever comes to him, but to bear it 'for a reasonable period' - and let the reasonable period be shorter than the trail is likely to last. It need not be much shorter; in attacks on patience, chastity, and fortitude, the fun is to make the man yield just when (had he but known it) relief was almost in sight."
Endure to the end...
