Boys Question. Men Accept. God will confront you.

Life can be hard sometimes. Death, sickness, infertility, loneliness, etc. are real things that are a part of life. In the midst of hard things, doubt can be a normal response.

“I am convinced that life is 10% what happens to me and 90% how I react to it.” – Charles Swindoll

In this life, we are going to face hardship. That is inevitable. Are we going to be discourages, bitter, resentful? Are we going to continue to be faithful and find strength, hope, and purpose?

John the Baptist spent his life preparing the way for Jesus. His entire life was dedicated to Jesus. And as a result, he was thrown into prison and beheaded.

We spent this week talking about the importance of how we react to difficult circumstances. We also spent time discussing the importance of leading a good life, especially because we aren’t guaranteed tomorrow.

It was a tough week. Not a lot of joy when we’re talking about hardship and death. BUT, we had some great discussion.
