It is destined that as Christians we endure longsuffering and as we suffer we grow in faith because our Lord and God will protect us and provide for our needs daily.

It is during this time that we must call upon our inner strength and have the courage to press forward. It is never enough to just give up, it is never right to just accept defeat but it is always satisfying to overcome the challenges in life. Courage is our superpower therefore let us not fear the unknown but have the courage to rise above and overcome the challenges that we face daily.  As the good book states " Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong" 1st Corinthians 16:13.
