Pure and honest obedience to christ is not easy. It’s not comfort, not even health, wealth or even prosperity that our world so freely promises us. Our pure, honest, and faithful obedience to christ risks losing all these things. But good news is in the end, such risk finds its way to christ and he is more then enough fo us. So in your troubles, in your thoughts of loneliness look to His cross and find joy, find happiness that our savior is here and he is seeking all of us to be apart of his family.
