Leading A Christian Life Is So Hard.

I struggle each day doing the right thing according to God's instruction in His Word. Too many occurrences in the work place or in the way that people conduct themselves that are not right. There are so many things working against being obedient to God. All of them are created by mankind and most are of our own making. Our own minds can make it most difficult for us and will keep us off track if we are left to our own understanding.

Living according to flesh and not according to the Holy Spirit is direct result of not being in the Word of God each and every day. It is His Word that gives us understanding, instruction, wisdom, revelation and allows us to hear from the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit should be consulted in every decision we make and be a focal part of our life. Be patient and wait to hear from the Holy Spirit.

Learn to rely on God with relationships, jobs, prosperity, and circumstance that are not pleasant. Give it up to Him and let Him decide what is best for you. Don't take on the burden of life without God.

Lastly, persevere as we prepare for Jesus coming.

Revelation 2:4 and you have persevered and have patience, and have labored for My name’s sake and have not become weary.
Revelation 3:10 Because you have kept My command to persevere, I also will keep you from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world, to test those who dwell on the earth.
