"There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that which ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it."
- I Corinthians 10:13
Dear Friends,
Some times it can all be too much. Frustration sets in and we begin to rehearse: "I don't know how much more of this can I take." Impatience hovers over us as we fume; "If one more thing goes wrong I am going to scream." Temptation. Tempted to give up, throw in the towel. Temptation. Tempted to forget that God has promised to work all together for our good even the frustration.
Every day the battle to stand firm is in front of us. We are especially vulnerable to attacks when we have our heart and minds set to diligently follow the Lord. It may appear that the pit falls and yes pot holes keep showing up the harder we try to navigate and stay the course.
Know that the temptations we face, the trials while seemingly "too much" have relevance in our Christian journey. We all have to go through the pool of adversity. And through faith in Jesus Christ we are assured we will make it through.
God is Faithful. This is relevant. God will make a way for us. This is relevant. God will bear our burdens. This is relevant.
God is. This is relevant.
God bless!
in Christ,
Sis. Stephanie
