Life is hard. And the higher your standards, the harder it’s going to get. Facing the hard truths of reality require an inner strength that doesn’t just happen by chance. We must face the challenges of existence with a focused determination to overcome any obstacle that gets in our way. And sometimes…we need help from others.

Before we experience the wonders of the Kingdom of God, the Faithful will face many trials and persecutions. But be encouraged, for He will give us the support we need to persevere to the end. And the suffering we endure is a refining process that helps us in our journey to become Children of God.

"Salvation Is Personal" by Sam Jones

Though God has big plans, He works through small people. People who find salvation achieve this through personal choices made in specific circumstances.

Usually this is just harmless competition, but sometimes it can lead to bitterness and jealousy. Even spiritual families are vulnerable to this childish behavior.
