It Aint Easy... But It's Worth It

We as Christians are called to be soldiers, in a battle that is beyond all other battles known to man. We are called to stand where no man would stand, nor could stand without the help of God. This battle is one that requires great effort and strength. Its only for the brave at heart! It’s fought by those who lay down their life totally for their King!! It will take many sleepless nights to win!! It will take some bloody cuts to win!! It will take some fighting while being exhausted! Many times you may have to give something up, to simply become a greater warrior!! Sometimes you may have to pick something up to become a better warrior. “Well what are you trying to say?” you may ask. Well I am saying simply this.. it aint easy… but it’s worth it!! See, all the trials and troubles we face here, are not fun! They are not something we really like going through. But we must hold on in the hard times!! It aint easy… but it’s worth it!! The victories are worth the battles!! It aint easy… but it’s worth it! The blessed rest that comes just in the hour of need, sent by our Loving Father to sustain us, is worth the standing hour after hour, day after day, toe to toe with the enemy. It aint easy… but it’s worth it!!! I am not saying that it will just be worth it in the end!! Although that day we will all wish we would have even battled harder, when we look upon His amazing countenance. But I am saying it is worth it now!! All the joy we still obtain just by knowing Him as Lord… is worth it!! The lessons He teaches us from every battle is worth it. Yes we must fight hard! Yes we have many battles!! Remember… it aint easy… but it’s worth it.

2 Tim 2:3 Thou therefore endure hardness, as a good soldier of Jesus Christ.
