God calls each and every one of us to do hard things, He encourages us all to say things when it even might be hard. Sin must be addressed, things sometimes hurt to say but are necessary to, and we must appreciate the weight of the role God has given us. The church is called to be God's people who do His calling even when it is hard to do.

As we grow in our faith, we must make an effort to show that and demonstrate how to stop being a "cucumber" and become a "pickle."

What is your first and best thing you love so dearly? God deserves our first and our best. Sometimes we love the previsions more than the provider, but the blessings God gives aren't always what we think they should be. Whoever and whatever gets your first and your best gets your heart.
