God promises that the life of a believer will be challenging. I'm sure you know of the narrow and wide gate. Those who took the narrow gate found eternal life, but they also had to battle poison ivy, bears, and thieves while those who took the wide gate had a leisurely stroll but went to hell. 2nd Corinthians 12:10 says "That is why for Christ's sake, I delight in weakness, in insults, in hardships, in persecutions, in difficulties. For when I am weak, I am strong." There are dozens of other verses similar to this one. The point is that everyone will face hardships. Those who don't believe in God take the wide path. They practice hedonism (just look it up ;) ) rather than Jesus' teachings. Those who take the narrow path will be blessed by God. Matthew 5:10 "Blessed are those who are persecuted because of righteousness, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven" Emma, find joy in your hardships and praise God through the rain for you are blessed without your knowledge and your life is already laid out in front of you. God has a plan for your life so don't be anxious. Be joyful of the life to come for these hardships are a mere blink in the eternity you will spend with your Lord. Do not doubt, have faith. The encouragement you will find if you merely ask because God says "Ask and it will be given, knock and the door will be open to you" Matthew 7:7. Emma, I will pray that you find courage through the hardships the same way I did and I will ask that the Lord give you the strength to battle the demons that try to tempt and lure you. May the Lord be with you! :)
