The Struggle: Empowered by God's Word (Lent 3)

The road to the cross was a struggle. Jesus would be rejected by his people and betrayed by his disciple. Satan tempted him to give up, but he pressed on to the cross for you. The Christian life is a struggle. The struggle is real. Faith in Christ doesn’t make us exempt from difficulties. But faith in Christ does give us strength to press on. Today, we consider that our struggles here on earth can quickly sap our strength and patience. So, the Psalmist takes us back to God’s Word where our God not only reminds us of who he is, but he empowers us by his Word so that we can live according to his will. By God’s grace, we strive to shape our lives around his Word.
