Is it the Enemy,
Is it war,
Or is it normal?
You know how in life
you want to break new ground,
And some things arise
to set you back?
And you ask yourself—
Is it the Enemy,
Is it war,
Or is it normal?
But we give thanks to the Lord,
The source of life,
Who helps us to stand
when things get rough
In those times we ask—
Is it the Enemy,
Is it war,
Or is it normal?

Just this morning, a friend who was to start up his business mentioned some of the setbacks he faced just when he tried to open up. His oven got damaged, and he was lucky the gas didn't explode on him. And I think, from time to time, we've been in such positions and ask ourselves many questions when things are not going as we planned. Sometimes, personally, I ask my myself— who did I offend? But sometimes, we ask ourselves: is it the Enemy, is it war, or is it normal?
