18. We Were Promised Peace Not Ease


Listen Later

Jesus didn’t promise us a life of ease, but He did promise us a life of peace and victory.

I have most definitely prayed this prayer (recently), “God, if You’re good, why is my life so hard?”

I had gotten stuck expecting ease in my life to prove to me God’s goodness instead of His goodness being proven by His perfect peace in my life.

I’d rather have peace.

Chasing after ease will only strip us of our courage, the joy of adventure, and any desire to live big lives. But peace, especially in difficulty, emboldens us to fully embrace the abundant life Jesus promised.
