One of the more familiar phrases from Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., is ‘how long, not long, but to some the question would beg how long and I believe an appropriate response is: “until then.” I say this because we must understand that there are times when we will face difficult transitional periods in our lives that may cause us to feel uncomfortable in our present condition and uncertain about our future. When such times occur, we should trust that God can provide instruction and assurance for our future during difficult times.
