God uses everything, including hardships. We should treat hardships as discipline. It is not something that happened that is a waste, but rather something that teaches us how to be better.

When we live the life God has for us, we should view it as a race. Races require endurance, training, perseverance and following the rules. Throw off sin that easily entangles you-- and throw it far.

Where you look to for advice is a good indicator of what voices you value the most. When Hezekiah received a threat of war from Sennacherib, first he read the letter. Then he took it to God. He did not seek advice from others first. He did not talk it over or verbally process it …
When you are walking in God's purpose, you will face things that look scary. You should expect people to fight against you. Hardship is not a sign that you are on the wrong path. The battle is not ours, but God's, and he will help you in the battle. He will fight for you and …
