What an encouragement! Thank you for this. I am reminded of James chapter 1, where it says that it’s trials that produce endurance/steadfastness. Our ability to endure is born within the trial/difficulty, not by avoiding it. He will walk with us through every valley and mountain.

Thank you for this wonderful writing, Alexander! I totally agree. I have no wordly success but I cherish the good things God gave me, every day. Shelter, food, clothing, quiet time, and most important, SALVATION. Wendy
