Life is hard but...God is with you!

Life is hard & it will keep on coming at you until Jesus returns. Until then-hard doesn't disqualify you from walking out the purpose God's called you to. You have what it takes to move through hard because God promises to be with you during hard times-His strength begins where yours ends every time. God's not a quitter & He won't quit on you...don't quit on Him-nothing is too hard for Him! The good work He started in you-He will bring to completion. Don't opt out on God's purpose for your life because you can't see the end or go through the motions of outward compliance & talk Christianese to try to look right.

Jesus died to give you an abundant life…to have a peace that surpasses human understanding in spite of trials. Seek the Holy Spirit-ask for wisdom to walk in the promises of God. When you get real with Jesus… He will get real with you. You may feel you've messed up too much, wasted time or just not valued enough to be used by God-these are your feelings & they are real...but they are not God's truth! God chose you-He loved you first, He purposed every good work you would do long ago. Ask Jesus to help you not doubt Him…He gives wisdom & sufficiency to all who call on Him. God wants you to succeed in what He purposed you to do-He's for you not against you! You have what it takes-everything you need to do what He's asked of you…Jesus lives in you, the Holy Spirit guides you & God's planned every second of your life. The only way you won't fulfill what your purposed to do is if you opt out & do life your way! God even gives you the desire & power to obey Him if you ask. 

One more thing-you're exhausted because you're  trying to resolve impossible situations with human wisdom. Put your faith in God's power not your wisdom-don't seek from man what only God can do! If you're still breathing...God's still at work. Keep moving, breathe in, breathe out, get some rest, think on what's pure, lovely & right & spend time with those who will encourage you but also speak God's truth. God won't give up on you, don't give up on Him-He will stay with you during hard...He wants to know if you will stay with Him?
