Bizarre as it sounds, gratitude can be very challenging at times!
The Christian message is that life is suffering. I have difficulty with this but there’s no doubt that endurance and perseverance are noble traits.
Can you honestly stare evil in the face and say you’re glad for it? Tough!
But if you can stand strong in the face of the lashing winds, you have every chance and hope of overcoming any hardship.
One step at a time is what I said yesterday, life gets messy and you have to pick up the pieces and march on.
Be glad for the harder times as well as the sweet times. Guess what it makes you – unstoppable!
