“No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation, he will also provide the way of escape that you may be able to endure it.“
(1 Corinthians 10:13 ESV)
“Little children, you are from God and have overcome them, for he who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.”
(1 John 4:4 ESV)
“I can do all things through him who strengthens me.“
(Philippians 4:13 ESV)
I saw this on.. you thought I was going to say Facebook, didn’t you? But not this time. I saw it on Pinterest: “Just because you are struggling doesn’t mean you’re failing.”
For me, that was good news. Lately, I have been struggling and feeling like a failure. I’ve been struggling with health, with finances and everything else. But there is good news. We have a Savior who will take our problems. He will take whatever concerns us and give us peace.
I could use a big truckload of peace right now. Jesus, take my hand and walk with me. I can’t do this without you. This started off on struggles. But as I was writing this, God invaded my space and gave me a truckload of peace. God is always welcome here.
Do you have a problem? What a silly question. Everyone has problems. It’s all in the way you handle them. Do you go off on your own and try to solve them? Or do you immediately turn to God? Me, I have been a solve it on your own type of person. But lately, I immediately turn to God for solutions. God has all the answers. He has the problem solved before we even know we have the problem.
So when you have problems or struggles, give them to God and let Him handle them.
Have a great day, everyone.
