The idea is simply this. God has a plan. The enemy has permission to taunt and thwart us.
I may be running down a path when the way gets difficult. Perhaps it is like running a tough mudder. There are obstacles and stuff slowing me down and making me want to quit.
This is NOT a sign that I'm on the wrong path. In fact, I would wonder just what kind of tough mudder was so easy to get through.
Anyway, I need to consider that conflict in the journey is not necessarily a bad thing.
