There are experiences that challenge us consistently. We may pray that God take these challenges away, but where would we be without them? We definitely wouldn’t pray as much! We likely wouldn’t grow as much either. These challenges & what come with them push us towards God’s word (hopefully) & draw us towards Him.
Don’t underestimate your ‘now’ & what you’re going through. Although it may not be easy, there’s a reason behind this part of your journey. There’s a process that’s occurring to develop something in you & to take something out of you. There may be people that God needs to remove from your circle too.
Even if you’re feeling lonely, God is with you. Even if your best friend deserted you, God is with you. Even if you feel that no one understands, God is with you. If you’re feeling weak, God provides strength—He loved us all to give His only Son, Jesus, to die for our sins, so surely, He will carry you through your current season.
Some things don’t come without going through pain & getting to the other side. Allow yourself to get to the other side of that struggle, challenge, or circumstance. Don’t stop now because right when you think the end is near, it could be God’s way of creating a new beginning.
There’s a purpose in the process.
Until next time.
Blessings,
