When the world crashes in, where do you turn? When you get that call that you dreaded, who will be there for you? When you aren’t sure how you will make it through the day, where do you find the strength to keep going?
All of us have seasons in life in which we face what we think are impossible struggles. Maybe it’s just a bad day or maybe its more than that. Regardless, difficulties are a part of life. They come our way and there is nothing we can do to control them.
So where do you turn?
Let me suggest that there is hope in difficult situations. There is hope in the face of impossible odds or impassible obstacles. Jesus came to give us that hope. What he offers us is life – real life – eternal life. He offers us life beyond our struggles and life in spite of our obstacles.
2 Corinthians 4:16-18 reminds us that what we see with our eyes is only temporary. Our hope comes in remembering that we don’t put our trust in what we can see but rather in what we can’t. All our troubles are just temporary. What God has in store for us is so much bigger and better than anything we can see or even imagine.
So regardless of the struggles you are facing in this moment – take heart – have hope. God is at work all around you and what is in store for you is so much better than these temporary circumstances!
Be blessed today!
