Growing Up

When going through adversity, don’t give up; grow up.

Are you facing a difficulty or a situation that seems like it’s been lasting a long time? Compared with eternity, our troubles don’t last long at all! As you stand strong during times of adversity, you are building faith and a strong mind. If you are in the middle of tough times today, look to God. The Bible says that He is the Author and Finisher of your faith. He is the One who writes faith on your heart and then develops it to completion on the inside of you. He is building strength in you, He is depositing joy in you, and He is empowering you to make it through. Today, be encouraged because what you are facing is only temporary. Victory is on the way, and it’s closer than you think! Keep standing, keep believing, keep hoping, and keep confessing His Word because He is faithful, and He will complete what He’s started in you. Are you growing up during adversity today?
