Wouldn’t it be nice if we never had to go through hard things?
If we never had to experience…
… the loss of a loved one
… the hardship of a broken relationship
… the grief of a miscarriage
… the pain of mental illness
Sweet friend, as much as we hope to avoid suffering at all costs, it’s always going to be a part of our reality this side of eternity. And while we know you’re weary, worn down, and ready to find relief, there are so many beautiful Truths you can cling to today that can give you hope in the midst of hardship!
✨The hard things you face are never wasted.
Romans 5:3-5
“We also boast in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, endurance produces character, and character produces hope. Now this hope does not disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts by the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.
✨The hard things you face will bring great reward.
James 1:12
”Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that the Lord has promised to those who love him.”
✨The hard things you face won’t last forever.
1 Peter 5:10
“And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you.”
✨The hard things you face makes you more like Christ.
Romans 8:17
“Now if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in his sufferings in order that we may also share in his glory.”
