Title: When Your Circumstances Fall Short  

The Point: God’s grace will sustain you through life’s circumstances. 

Life Connection: Christians learn quickly that following Jesus does not lead to or guarantee a life of ease. 

While we may wonder why God is not removing our difficulties or blessing us with pleasant circumstances, God does promise us one thing: His presence. “I will never leave you or abandon you” (Heb. 13:5). As our difficulties lead us to look to Him, we discover that His gracious presence in our lives is more than enough. 

Session Passage: 2 Corinthians 1:8-10; 12:6-10
