God Promises Us An Abundant Life, But Not An Easy Life
Scripture
Acts 14
21 They preached the gospel in that city and won a large number of disciples. Then they returned to Lystra, Iconium and Antioch, 22 strengthening the disciples and encouraging them to remain true to the faith. “We must go through many hardships to enter the kingdom of God,” they said.
Observation
Sometimes we think or at least I do that the Christian life is supposed to be an easy life, but nowhere in scripture do we find this false idea. The Christian life is a battle. We are in spiritual warfare and it is never going to be easy. God is Mighty and could make this life of ours a cakewalk, but if He did we would never grow spiritually. We grow the best under trials.
Application
I will not grumble as I face the challenges of this day.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, help me not to grumble. Give me joy today. Show me Your Power and Your Goodness!
