Today we are reading 2 Corinthians 6. In this chapter we read about the hardships we face as believers. “but as servants of God we commend ourselves in every way: by great endurance, in afflictions, hardships, calamities, beatings, imprisonments, riots, labors, sleepless nights, hunger; by purity, knowledge, patience, kindness, the Holy Spirit, genuine love; by truthful speech, and the power of God; with the weapons of righteousness for the right hand and for the left; through honor and dishonor, through slander and praise. We are treated as impostors, and yet are true; as unknown, and yet well known; as dying, and behold, we live; as punished, and yet not killed; as sorrowful, yet always rejoicing; as poor, yet making many rich; as having nothing, yet possessing everything.” 2 Corinthians 6:4-10 ESV How have you experienced difficulties in your faith life? What has been your response to disappointment or hardship? How has God helped you through? Do you believe God will continue to watch over you and your loved ones? May you find great comfort in your faith. Pastor Tim
