The difficulty of being a Christian.
Being a Christian can be amazingly troublesome. Our choice to take after Jesus may have been a characteristic piece of our days when growing up or it might have been a period of profound soul looking and challenges. In any case, our life must be a steady coming back to God.
As a potter molds clay in his grasp, pushing and coordinating even reproducing from the beginning once more; so our lives must be changed by the hand of God.
Our benefit of obligation is to keep up love and justice yet love can be pushed once again into our faces and justice isn't generally needed. However, who will love if we do not love and where would justice be able to be seen without the benevolence which God offers?
At that point we are asked to sit tight and wait for our God. We cry, 'O God to what extent must we be in waiting?'.
This happened to the prophets of old and now is our worry. We need quick solutions to our supplications and some of the time it appears as though God has shut His ears. Some of the time it is conceivable to feel that we have been pushed into a corner; that a weight has been put on our shoulders.
There is a duty which maybe we wished we didn't need. For a few, this weight becomes too much and they choose they can't proceed with this duty anymore.
Our God does not have any desire to be a burden unto us but rather he wants us to be His agents and disciples.
Be that as it may, what would we be able to do if our Christianity turns out to be too much of a weight?
Above all else we should look back to the cross and help ourselves to remember the affection Jesus showed us there. We ought to invest energy in supplication and conversing with our God about our sentiments and feelings.
At that point we should also seek the advice of our brethren who are on the same journey as us. This would help us get back to our God, keep up love and justice and sit tight and wait a little longer for our God.
The life we are proposed to live as the children of God will cost us. The pain that You have been feeling cannot compare To the joy that is coming.
It's actually difficult to do what is right, when we are amidst people practicing things that are wrong. But, this text of yours shows that God would guide us and give us his holy spirit to make it easier for us.
It is a narrow path but where we have the privilege of seeing the glory of God in each challenge. Jesus said: "They will have affliction but trust, I have overcome the world"
This a great post @sirjoe. Anyone who tells you that committing your life to Christ makes your life easier is not telling the truth. Fulfilling, yes. More joyful, absolutely. But easier? No. In some ways, life gets more difficult after we come to Christ. The struggle against sin is more pronounced, for one thing. Laziness, gluttony, swearing, anger, envy, self centeredness, materialism, covetousness, intimacy issues —the temptations seem never-ending. The world, the flesh, and the devil don’t go away because we have stepped into a relationship with Christ.
If we really want to serve God, he can make it possible. The scriptures says God draws closer to himself his servants. We would want to be Christians - ones that are not ashamed.

It's really hard to make the right decision, when we are in the midst of individuals honing things that aren't right. In any case, this content of yours demonstrates that God would control us and give us his sacred soul to make it simpler for us.
