Jesus’s disciples found the emotional strength to carry out their incredible task by being in prayer continually.
No matter what problems you may face, God has a way to make them purposeful. God helps us change our perspective so that we see problems as opportunities.
Life is unquestionably a roller coaster reaching great heights and then sudden, dizzying falls. Without convictions to anchor and stabilize us, we can begin losing faith in God and become unsteady.
Tests, pressure, setbacks, failure, and trouble can expose the condition of our faith. We need Bible verses about resilience to help us believe that those challenges don’t have to own us.
These Bible stories about trusting God will inspire you to overcome circumstances and inspire your faith to believe.
Jesus had the resilience to continually going back to God in prayer to face his fears of dying. He did not give up but kept fighting with God to get the faith to move forward.
Fearless people have tenacity, which is the ability to keep fighting for something, and to believe you can win.
In order to dig deep, we have to be willing to go through the process of discovering who we really are and what’s really in our hearts. We often like to stay superficial and avoid this process. Strain exposes who we really are. How do you handle the strain in your life? What comes out? How deeply rooted are you and able to handle the strain of life?
Are you content? This study is about embracing life’s challenges, letting go of worldly attachments and becoming content.
Difficulties reveal who you really are. What are you like when you are not close to God? How do you tend to respond when something difficult happens?
How do you respond when you go through storms in life? Emotional storms? Do they drive you closer to God and make you stronger in your convictions? Or do storms leave you shaken and weakened in your faith?
When times get tough, we need to rely on God and friends instead of handling life independently.
