What Doesn’t Kill You Will Try Again

I’ve heard it said, “What doesn’t kill you will probably try again tomorrow.”
That’s just life in a fallen world. The devil prowls around like a roaring Lion seeking those to devour, but GOD! God is stronger than the what ifs of tomorrow where the enemy tries to belittle you and turn you away from the Lover of your soul. God is the One who chases after you all the more. Will suffering try to over take us?
Yes.
But God can use even the difficulties of hardship to draw us to Himself. Invite Him into your hard. Today’s hard, yesterday’s hard AND tomorrow’s hard. Christ was, is, and will be there to guide and protect you. What doesn’t kill you and try to kill you, is surrounded and encompassed by a Loving God who relentlessly pursues you and is after you to purify your heart. He’s with you in the lion’s den. He’s with you in the dessert. He’s with you in the storm. He’s with you in your sickness. He’s with you in your grief. He’s with you no matter your thorn in your flesh, and He will be there tomorrow when you feel overcome by the mere thought of your life’s dealings. This is not the end. Christ is with you in your hard. He’s protecting you from the enemy in ways you are unable to fathom and one day soon we will be restored to our heavenly bodies with Christ, where the devil will, and cannot touch you because of your dedication and persistence to follow and worship Christ in all circumstances here on the earth.
So make it a goal to pursue Christ even more than the enemy is after you, because even with the two of your persistences together, you cannot out-pursue God’s love for you as His child. God’s love is infinite!

This earth is riddled by the effects of sin so yes, “what doesn’t kill you will try again tomorrow,” but Christ is already there, so there’s nothing to fear!
