Dealing with Hard Times.

Bad things happen to and around Christians just like they do for everyone else. Often in those struggles we can see God more clearly than we can in the easy times.  This collection of posts focuses on keeping our purpose in Christ at the forefront of our life experiences.

In the end, it is all about Jesus and not all about us. We live this life crucified to ourselves yet alive in Jesus Christ. Dealing with hard times is just par for the course.

If we ever want to be free – I mean really free – we absolutely have to forgive those who hurt us. In this season, I find myself forgiving people on Facebook, Twitter and even folks I’ve never met!
