Barbara and I love the moments where we get to spend time with our kids and our grandkids. No agendas. No time constraints. Just moments together. Moments where we get to spend afternoons just talking. Talking about the good things happening in our lives. And talking about the not so good things happening in our lives. Unfortunately, it seems like many people that we know are currently going through some not so good things. It\u2019s a sad reality. But it\u2019s part of being human. Even though the path has been paved. Even though we have paradise waiting for us. We must face the struggles here on earth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Everyone goes through difficult circumstances at one time or another. We find ourselves discouraged. Losing jobs. Our health taking a turn for the worse. Financial struggles. Relationships ending. Facing death. So many things. And it\u2019s during those moments that we can lose sight on God. We can lose sight on the hope that he provides. I believe that is when Satan creeps in and tells us God is not there. Telling us that if God loved us so much, why would he allow us to struggle. He is the ultimate liar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
No matter what we are going through, let\u2019s remember that this is temporary. Let\u2019s remember that God promises hope and love. No matter the struggles, let\u2019s remember these things. Just remember that eternity is waiting for us. Take rest knowing this. Let\u2019s never turn a blind eye on the sacrifice Jesus made. Instead, let\u2019s always believe in the joy that awaits us. The pain and struggles we face are temporary. And they are nothing in comparison to what awaits us in heaven.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
