Have you ever felt assailed by the daily struggles that are life? This is not a new phenomenon, but a regular occurrence for mee and probably for most Christians. You accept Jesus as Savior and then you think that only good things will happen. Not true! The God who created us is in control but He does not control man’s choices and the sin that is in the world affecting us are the direct result of men’s choices. I am a sinner saved by grace but sin is still rampant in the world. Thus, the diseases that affect sinners can touch me, too. The hardships, the storms of life can all come my way. But, and this is a big but, those of us who have a relationship with the Lord can hold on to the promise that He says we will only suffer for a little while and then He Himself will restore us. Added to that promise is that He will make us strong, firm and steadfast. The boat may be rocking, but Jesus is walking across the water to get in with you!

Have a blessed day, my friends!
