Nowhere in Scripture does it say that the Christian life is going to be easy? In fact, there are many examples in the Bible of people suffering and even dying for their faith. But Pastor Jeff reminds you today that God gives you the strength to not only endure the trials but to thrive and even grow because of them. When you are weary and beaten down by the world, remember that God is on your side, and look to Him for relief. He doesn’t promise an easy path, but He does promise to be your helper.
