Keep on climbing

 

Hi there – A word for you today about overcoming the difficulties that face you:

“We must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God,” they said. – Acts 14: 22

WE can’t choose our hardships, nor can we manage to steer clear of them all. But with God’s help, we are protected, and we can still choose our response to the things that stress us. He sent Christ to help us transcend these difficulties and see them as a stairway – however steep and tiring – to heaven. He wants us to respond with hope, not despair, with innovation and integrity, with peace and trust in Him - not with worry. Our troubles are meant to nurture Christ’s kindness and caring, not our own resentment and anger. God wants our obstacles to build us up not break us down. Through faith and endurance, we can overcome - and the reward is joyful and eternal.
