The hardest part of being a Christian is the battle with our former selves. I'm sure y'all know this, but I just wanted to remind you that the Lord Jesus Christ has not left us nor has He forsaken us...

This is just the way it is.

Our flesh and the things we carry with us are always a burden that must be nailed to the Cross every single day. I have my burdens; you have yours.

At the end of the day though, the Lord Jesus tells us that 2Co 12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me

It is hard to fathom this truth as we're getting our butts kicked from sinister sources (e.g. demonic oppression) and the seemingly perpetual assault on our Christian freedom.

Be of good cheer though... for the Lord Jesus also said, that " Joh 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world .

So let us have peace. Repent for transgressions and sins; let us look to Christ instead of our failures.

As the Sabbath approaches, be well and may the Lord Jesus Christ bless and preserve you.
