Job loss, sudden death of a loved one, divorce, life-changing decisions. We'll all face them. Paul Washer has an excellent video that shows who God is and always has been. Daniel 11:32 - "32 He shall seduce with flattery those who violate the covenant, but the people who know their God shall stand firm and take action."
"The true soldier fights not because he hates what is in front of him, but because he loves what is behind him." -G. K. Chesterton

Isaiah 5:20 Woe to those who call evil good and good evil, who put darkness for light and light for darkness, who put bitter for sweet and sweet for bitter.

In 2 Corinthians, we see Paul recounting to the Church in Corinth the importance of hardship for the advancement of Christ's kingdom
"But He said to me, "My Grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness." Therefore, I will boast more gladly about my weakness so that Christ's power may rest on me. That is why- for Christ's sake- I delight in weakness, insults, in hardships, persecutions, and difficulties" 2 Corinthians 12
When we are weak, He is strong.

Such a needed message for today. Carter Conlon also has a sermon on Youtube called "Don't let discouragement take your strength" .that's also worth a listen.
