A whole lot of what we call 'struggling' is simply delayed obedience.

Are you afraid? Remember the "fear nots" of the Bible.

What I ought to do and what I feel like doing are seldom the same thing.

Think of this- we may live together with Him here and now, a daily walking with Him who loved us and gave Himself for us.

A prayerful heart and an obedient heart will learn, very slowly and not without sorrow, to stake everything on God Himself.

We can't really tell how crooked our thinking is until we line it up with the straight edge of Scripture.

The life of faith is lived one day at a time, and it has to be lived - not always looked forward to as though the "real" living were around the next corner. It is today for which we are responsible. God still owns tomorrow.
