This episode is about perseverance. Sharon shares her heart about losing her pet who has helped comfort her and her husband after her son's death. Sometimes life does not seem fair, and then there comes the straw that breaks the camel's back. She discusses how with God's help we need to refocus our faith back on Him. He is where our hope comes from. There are many examples from the Bible when people have faced terribly hard situations and how God has helped them to stand strong in their faith. Abraham got up early to head out when God told him to sacrifice his son. Paul got up and went on preaching after he was stoned and left for dead. Our wonderful Savior set the greatest example of all because He allowed Himself to be crucified for you and for me when He carried out His Father's will.
We have to trust God more than our circumstances. What is He laying before us? Can we say yes to Him even when the situation is anything but what we want to say yes to? He is waiting to help carry those burdens that we were never meant to carry. When we hold His hand, we can walk by faith and not be sight. Declare your faith, and not let your feelings be in charge. It is so much easier to say than to do. But with God, nothing is impossible.
Thank you for listening today. We hope that you are encouraged. Press on. Soon you will find that God has brought you miles down the road toward your Heavenly reward. He makes it worth the journey!
