‘Good understanding gains favor, But the way of the unfaithful is hard.’
Proverbs 13:15
I’m learning.
And.
God.
Has been.
Faithful.
In.
Teaching me.
That.
Life.
Is.
Not.
Hard!
For.
The.
Faithful!
Wednesday.
Night.
Pastor Cochran.
Delivered.
A word.
That.
Helped.
Me.
And.
I want.
To.
Share.
What.
I learned.
With.
You!
In.
The.
Verse.
Above.
It.
States.
‘the way of the unfaithful is hard.’
However.
Pastor Cochran.
Spoke.
From.
The subject.
The Superior Way of Living.
And.
God’s word.
Is.
Clear.
‘For we walk by faith, not by sight. ‘
II Corinthians 5:7
Therefore.
If.
We.
Are.
Choosing.
To.
Live by.
Sight.
Then.
We.
Are.
Choosing.
To.
Live.
Contrary.
To.
God’s word!
Instead.
There’s.
A better.
Way.
To.
Live.
And.
That’s.
By.
Faith!
Which.
Is.
Aligned.
With.
God’s word!
Look.
When.
You.
Hear.
People.
Say.
Life.
Is.
Hard.
What’s.
Really.
Happening.
Is.
They.
Are.
Choosing.
To.
Live.
An.
Unfaithful.
Life.
That’s.
Not.
Aligned.
With.
God’s word!
Over.
The past.
Two years.
I’ve learned.
That.
Life.
Isn’t.
Easy.
But.
It’s.
Definitely.
Not.
Hard.
When.
I live.
According.
To.
God’s word!
How.
Do I.
Know.
This?
Because.
The word.
Tells.
Me.
That.
I will.
Have.
Trouble.
In.
This.
World.
But.
God.
Will.
Deliver.
Me.
From.
All.
Of.
It!
‘Many are the afflictions of the righteous, But the Lord delivers him out of them all.’
Psalms 34:19
The.
Last.
Thing.
I want.
To.
Share.
With.
You.
Is.
The.
World.
We.
Live in.
Isn’t.
Heaven!
Therefore.
Don’t.
Think.
You.
Won’t.
Suffer.
In.
Some.
Capacity.
In.
Your.
Life!
‘Beloved, do not think it strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened to you; but rejoice to the extent that you partake of Christ’s sufferings, that when His glory is revealed, you may also be glad with exceeding joy. ‘
I Peter 4:12-13
Instead.
Maintain.
Your.
Joy.
And.
Peace.
While.
Suffering.
Because.
The word.
Tells.
Us.
God’s.
Glory.
Will be.
Revealed.
To us!
In.
Doing so.
I pray.
That you.
Take heed.
To.
What.
I’ve shared.
With.
You.
And.
Remember.
Life.
Isn’t.
Hard.
For.
The.
Faithful!
I love you!
And.
I pray your day is blessed!
In Jesus name, Amen!
