I had to put this one up where it was a little more noticeable. I know this seems kinda preachy, but it's thoughts like this that give me courage and hope when times seem to be too tough :). I hope it may lighten your load as well.
Daily Gems
Stand Steady and True
"Discipleship does not guarantee freedom from the storms of life. Even as we are wending our way carefully and faithfully along the strait and narrow path, we encounter obstacle and challenge. There are days, perhaps even months and years, when life is just hard. We experience our fair share of adversity, heartache, loneliness, pain, grief--sometimes; it seems more than our fair share. "What to do when adversity strikes? There is only one thing to do. Stand steady and see it through. Stay steadfast, constant, and true. The real tragedy in the whirlwinds of life comes only when we allow them to blow us off our true course."
Topics: discipleship, adversity, faith, endurance
