Good morning, I like your post. Every question needing an answer is found in the word of God…period! We just have to open the holy book and see (read). Have you ever wondered why people would say serving Christ or our Christian faith/walk is hard? I have heard this from the mouth of Christians. I went to God’s word and found out firstly Jesus said offenses will come (Luke 17:1), and then I think about when the Lord said vengeance is mine I will repay (Romans 12:19), and I think about how to obtain good success God’s way (Joshua 1:7-9), and I think about Proverbs 3:5-7, and I think about the afflictions of the righteous (Psalm 34:19); these scriptures are few of the many that confirms God’s love for us from John 3:16 to John 19:30 when Jesus said “it is finished.” Our start is to believe, how hard is that? (Mark 9:23). The way I see it as one accepts Jesus as Lord and savior it should be the best, the easiest journey one can choose. Why else would the angels of heaven rejoice if it was not good news! (Luke 15:10). What makes this walk hard is when one does not rid his or herself of pleasing people (Colossians 3:23; John 8:29) and of fleshy lusts no matter its shape, form, size or color, (Matthew 6:33). Continue to enjoy this beautiful day, created for us by God.
