Getting Through It

Life is hard sometimes. As Christians, how do we get through it? The late Brennan Manning says: I believe childlike surrender and trust, is the defining spirit of authentic discipleship. The supreme need in most of our lives is often the most overlooked: an unfaltering trust in the love of God no matter what goes down.

As a beloved child of God, I admit it is often hard to surrender and trust my heavenly Father no matter what goes down. That's not God's fault - that's mine. Forgive me, Abba.
