Galatians 6:2

Bear one another’s burdens, and thereby fulfill the law of Christ.
New American Standard Bible (NASB)

Sometimes life is just hard.

The past couple weeks that seems to be the case for many of those I care deeply about.

Several friends have shared with me that they are struggling in their marriages, some more seriously than others.

Another friend is in conflict with a friend from her church.

More than one family is dealing with unemployment and all the stress that comes with it.

Mark's beautiful, nineteen-year-old cousin, Taylor, lost her courageous, almost five year battle with brain cancer.  Taylor's precious mom, Kathleen received news that her twin brother had died the evening of Taylor's funeral.

Unthinkable.

Unbelievable.

Unimaginable.

Maybe you are in a similar situation or facing a different, but equally impossible situation this very moment.

I pray God would move in a way that is unlike anything you have ever experienced and when He does, you recognize it for the unthinkable, unbelievable, unimaginable victory it is.

He has already overcome the world.

The. World.

May that truth sink in and bring you comfort and peace.

John 16:33
I (Jesus) have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.
New Living Translation (NLT)

They say human beings can adapt to almost anything.

This morning, with the temperature at 19°, I stood in my flip flops pumping $100 worth of gas into my 4WD SUV and realized they may very well be right.
