Building Us Up
 
Acts 17:27-28a (NLT) “His purpose was for the nations to seek after God and perhaps feel their way toward him and find him—though he is not far from any one of us. For in him we live and move and exist.
 
One thing is for sure about going through tough times: If we just hold firmly to our faith in God, He will build us up through the discomfort, and He will bring us out stronger, wiser, and closer to Him than we could have thought possible. Yeah, our difficulties are opportunities for us to grow bold in Christ instead of being afraid or downtrodden with gloom. When we join our faith with our Father, we find ourselves in situations that help us to become better Kingdom citizens. When we keep looking up, God will build us up through our tough times. He always working things out for us. Believe that.
