Promised Savior

This life is marked with hardship and difficulties, even in our faith. Jesus said, “Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.” (John 16:33 NLT) And it isn’t just that we don’t have to go through things alone, or that God will engage us and what we are dealing with. He has promised that in the end, we win. If we will set our hearts toward Him and our intent to do His well, Isaiah promises, we won’t be rejected and we won’t be put to shame (see Isaiah 50:7).
