Struggles

What if its not working?
What if you can't stay on track?
What if when you take one step forward you take two back?
These are important questions we all ask at a one time or another.
I learned an important principle years ago, its in Proverbs 11:14 "For lack of guidance a nation falls, but many advisers make victory sure". I shudder to think of where I might be at today but for the wise and trusted counsel of good friends.
Everyone at some point in their life struggles with something and for that struggle maybe some counsel would help.
Proverbs 27:6 Faithful are the wounds of a friend, sometimes the truth really hurts but if its from someone who truely loves you and wants the best for you then take it on the chin and use it for Gods glory and your strengthening.
Remember this, you and I do not struggle because we are bad, its because we are human and frail.
