Pain and hardship will certainly cause us to pray; sometimes even more than our needs and wants. But why do we continue finding ourselves in hard places, difficult places, even addicted places? We experience pain and hardship because we live in a broken world, and in an unseen war where there is an “evil one” against us. What do we do? The fourth way Jesus told us to pray is found in Matthew 6:13, and that is to “lead not into temptation, but deliver us from the evil one.”
We all experience competing emotions, but we can choose not to let them control us.
You are not the sum total of your life’s experiences; you are what God says you are in Christ.
We all need people in our lives that will love us on different level. The problem with this is that love doesn’t always feel...
