"It is necessary to pass through many troubles on our way into the kingdom of God." - Paul

Have you ever attended church where the pastor spoke on how difficult it is to actually follow Jesus? If not, you might be in a bad church. Following Jesus is not easy. And it is often accompanied with persecution and difficulty. Jesus said, "the world hated me, it will hate my followers."

Today, don't let your personal comfort be the measure of God's blessing in your life. Sometimes God's blessing is actually the opposite of such comforts. He is to be our delight, not what He can do to make our lives more comfortable.

Embrace the difficulty that often comes from living a life of faith today.
