Why God Makes It Hard For Us Sometimes

  • Proverbs 3:11-12 NIV says
    "My son, do not despise the Lord’s discipline,
    and do not resent his rebuke,
    because the Lord disciplines those he loves,
    as a father the son he delights in."
    We are not going to understand everything God does! In fact, most of the time it won't make sense to us. One thing that is important to remember is that Godly conviction and correction is protection to us.
    It is a sign of God's presence and love in our lives. Don't despise God's correction when He gives it to you!
    I hope that this message reaches you, encourages you, and challenges you to see the true perspective of God's discipline in your life.
    May God bless you and grant you His favor!

    My greatest hurt, pain was my Wife passing away on Christmas Eve 2023. What I did with this crushing loss was get more into God’s word. My routine now is come home from work, make a cup of coffee then pray and read the Bible. God is good!!

    One of the best ways to show God that we love him is walking in ways and holding tightly to him! ““Be careful to obey all these commands I am giving you. Show love to the Lord your God by walking in his ways and holding tightly to him.”
    ‭‭Deuteronomy‬ ‭11‬:‭22‬ ‭NLT‬‬

AMEN! 🙏🏾

    the timing of this is incredible. ive been battling insecurities for the past couple months. i broke up with my girlfriend because i was overthinking like crazy for no reason. she was perfect and ive always thought shes the type of person God would send. i just couldnt live in the moment and i worried too much about the future. point is, around the time i broke up with her, the devil planted a certain thought in my head that made me so uncomfortable and i didnt believe it. ive always believed in God but i was definitely a lukewarm Christian. over the past month ive been dedicated every free second I have to knowing the word of God. i still fight the thought every day and at times i feel like God’s given up but i know its not true. i just need to ask for strength in fighting the devil. sorry for the essay but i had a lot to say. if its not too much to ask, please pray for me

    been struggling a lot recently with overthinking and doubting my salvation. its strange, i can look at my life recently and see that God is changing my mind and heart (eg i dont look forward to or idolise the things of this world, im hating and resisting my sin more and more, i cant really listen to secular music the same way) but im hit with doubts and fears that my sin is too much for God. the bible says “my grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness”. i know im being drawn closer to God and further from my sin but as that happens im hit with these thoughts more and more. keep me in your prayers please!!

    Just transferred to a new college a month ago after getting my associates and pursuing a bachelor’s and just got my literal DREAM JOB but that dream job requires a lot of responsibility to take on at just the age of 21 and also dealing with other side projects I’m working on and a lot of it feels overwhelming and feels like I can’t handle it all, and asking the Lord to help me and know that my problems aren’t problems for him for he is greater is truly helping but if yall could pray for me and ask that I do everything in this new Journey with a heart for the Lord and pray for me to stay on his path despite getting busy and temptations coming and going that would be amazing.

    I wanted to hit you guys with a testimony of gods greatness so a few days ago in my highschool there is this marathon that they do thats kinda far and well you gotta sign up before its too late and hit a limit of students. Well i had planed to sign up cause i didn't feel liked stayin in my house all day long, so i waited to sign up this monday, but when i went to sign myself up they told me that they already hit the max of students to go to the marathon, i felt a bit sad but didn't care cause god those things all for a reason.. Then on wednesday after my first class ended i was about to take the stairs to go to my classroom when i see this friend (eliu)
    And we started talking when he told me if i was interested or if i knew someone who was interested in taking his place, because on that day hes got some things to do and he won't be able to make it. So he was wondering to give his seat away and i accepted it. (The marathon is this saturday and i got a seat, thanks to god :))
