—2 Corinthians 4:7-15

Nobody likes enduring hardship; however, we have to remember that we were never promised an easy life. The encouraging part about facing a trial is seeing the Lord’s hand in it and understanding why we had to go through what we did. Sometimes, we do not get that satisfaction because what we faced might have not necessarily been for our benefit, but for the benefit of others. As a body of believers, we get to pour into one another and encourage each other in both the good and bad times. Even though you might be confused or disheartened in this season of trials, your experiences could be a major encouragement for someone else!
