Dear Friends,
We all deal with difficulties in life. Christians are by no means immune to these, however, the way in which we handle life’s hardships reflect our faith in so many different ways. Often, non Christians are amazed at the faith of those who face adversity with confidence, peace and a courageous outlook. Their act of faith is a witness to all of those around them. I have been inspired so many times by friends and family who daily live their faith, no matter what. You are my inspiration! May God bless each and every one of you as you continue in your faith journey. peace and love, Scott

Learn To Appreciate difficult days. Be stimulated by the challenges you encounter along your way. As you journey through rough terrain with Me, gain confidence from your knowledge that together we can handle anything. This knowledge is comprised of three parts: your relationship with Me, promises in the Bible, and past experiences of coping successfully during hard times.
Look back on your life, and see how I have helped you through difficult days. If you are tempted to think, “Yes, but that was then, and this is now,” remember who I Am! Although you and your circumstances may change dramatically, I remain the same throughout time and eternity. This is the basis of your confidence. In My Presence you live and move and have your being.
Isaiah 41:10 10So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.
Psalm 102:27 27 But you remain the same, and your years will never end.
Acts 17:28 28’For in him we live and move and have our being.’ As some of your own poets have said, ‘We are his offspring.’
