Ephesians 6:12 NASB "For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the powers, against the world forces of this darkness, against the spiritual forces of wickedness in the heavenly places." No wonder we get tired! Today's verse shares where some of our struggles come from, be sure to read the list. As I sat with him, he began to relate to me how tired he was. He felt that every turn, he was facing difficulties that were beyond his control. He had been divorced, lost time with his children, his parents had lost faith in him but now he had accepted Christ and trying to put his life back together. We discussed today's verse, I told him, we all face battles and to continue to fight against the feeling of giving up. We shared that Jesus conquered all for him, and all of us who struggle but there will come a day when we see the victory, so keep on fighting, be strong and courageous and He will see us through. We prayed, then prayed some more. As we left each other, I shared one of my favorite movie lines "never give up, never surrender!" peace, tom
