Do Hard Things

There are a million hard things we have to do in life. Our natural tendencies are to overthink, avoid, or only do it halfway. And these are just worldly things! How much harder must it be for us to do the hard Spiritual things for a God we can not see? Jesus, God in the flesh, struggled as well. We don’t talk about it often, and it can be hard for us to think about, or even grasp. However, being fully God and fully man, there was a struggle within him right before he went to the cross. He struggled with his destiny and being obedient. BUT… He did it! Jesus did the hardest thing anyone could ever have to do. So, why should we feel shame when we are faced with doing hard spiritual things? We shouldn’t, but we should do them if they are what God has commanded us to do. And when we are obedient to do these hard things, the power of the Holy Spirit will allow us to be more than conquerors.
