Thankful ... Day 4

Life is hard. Too hard. Harder than it looks and just when you think it is getting easier ... it gets hard again.

I have never been one to surrender easily except when it comes to surrendering to the flesh. I am very much the quitter when faced with fighting sin and too often I have waved the white flag with eagerness and given victory to the one who seeks to kill, steal and destroy.

I am grateful that in the face of adversity ... during the hard days and nights of parenting, marriage, & life that the Lord will take up my fight and claim victory for HIS glory.
