God never promises to remove us from our struggles. He does promise, however, to change the way we look at them.

Jesus is not "out of touch with our reality. He's been through weakness and testing, experienced it all - all but the sin. So let's walk right up to him and get what he is so ready to give. Take the mercy, accept the help" (Heb. 4:15 - 16 MSG).
We are presumptuous not when we marvel at His grace, but when we reject it.
