Why is life so hard? Because we are in the midst of war! There is an unrelenting spiritual enemy plotting and scheming to steal, kill, and destroy every good gift from Our Heavenly Father. 
It is easy to lose heart and focus when life gets difficult and to look at your circumstances and be downcast.  This is because we have a tendency to look at the work of the enemy rather than the work of our Savior Jesus Christ.  When our eyes are fixed appropriately, we have hope, joy, and contentment.  The alternative is hopelessness, despair, and discontent. 
Remember Jesus’ FINISHED work at the cross secured our spiritual freedom for all eternity. In the physical realm we are walking in that truth day by day and one day we will fully experience that freedom. We have great hope in Him.  He is our joy and our stregnth. His work brings us joy forevermore!
Please pray with me today  over our eyes and focus. That they may be firmly fixed on Jesus, unchanged by our circumstances. May the hope of Jesus flood iur hearts today and overwhelm us with peace that passes all understanding. May our hearts be filled with joy and gratitude that abound and overflow. The Spirit of God will comfort us and bring many to Christ.
