Sooner or later, we all come to the realization that life isn't easy. Fortunately, God's Word provides insight and direction for us when we encounter struggles in life.
We are exhorted in the pages of the Bible to be earnest about our faith. In fact, various writers of Scripture plead with us to do a number of things. Over the next few weeks we'll examine some of these. Might our Christian lives thus demonstrate due diligence.
