the GIANT struggle

Sometimes I feel as though life is just one giant struggle. From one day to the next it is an up hill climb against all that Satan has to offer and the hill is more like a rock face. Have you ever been there? Does your journey in life often lead you from one storm to another? I must be honest and admit that when the storm is raging, I feel a sense of peace because there is an "umbrella" that covers me and helps to protect me. As we wonder through this dark and weary landscape we realize that the giant struggle will always show its ugly face. (Satan does not stop for anything!) Now the bright ray of light is that Jesus, because of his sacrifice on the cross, bridged the gap between lost and found. So as each of us face the giant struggles in life, the hope of life beyond is a reassuring comfort to each and everyone of us.
