When I face a struggle, I have two go-to responses. One is to simply give up, but that doesn’t help me at all. The other is to just keep pushing through. I rarely ask for help or seek guidance.
John 16:33 says, “I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.” Those of us who have trusted in Jesus Christ can have peace through the struggles we face in this world. We don’t find peace by trying to overcome our troubles in ourselves. Take heart knowing that Jesus has overcome the world and He is in you. He has overcome and will help you overcome any struggle.
