The road will not be smooth through and through...

Have you ever faced a mountain you felt was so great such that it was insurmountable?

Have you ever had a challenge you thought could never be sorted out or a puzzle you concluded could never be solved?

Have you ever travelled a road you thought would never end?

Have you ever been in a sore state which you felt had gone on too long to ever come to an end?

Can you relate with the above? Yes, right?

Now, try to recall what happened at the end of those challenging circumstances? Can you recall that some light evolved at the end of the seemingly unending tunnel(s)? Think about it... Light suddenly approached out of the dark, isn't it?

"Weeping may endure for a night but joy comes in the Morning" (Psalms 30:5)

One beautiful twist I have come to realize about life is that irrespective of the down moments; irrespective of the challenges; irrespective of our life puzzles; irrespective of the mountainous journeys we find ourselves... There is always light at the end of the tunnel!!!

So I call you up to strength to hold through the dark seasons because we understand that it is a part of the process. Even Jesus had to be crucified before He was glorified. The Scriptures also remind us that - "In the midst of the most opposition abounds the most grace" (Romans 5:20); Let us draw on the grace of God in those dark times and hold on till we get to the end of the tunnel where we inherit the promises given us by God.

We were not called to an unchallenging walk, NO!
 The road has lots of challenges but these present sufferings are nothing when compared to the glory that is set ahead of us (Romans 8:18).

See you at the other end of the tunnel.
