Finding Hope When Church Feels Hardનમૂનો

Church. The simple word can bring so many emotions. It can remind us of faith, pain, belonging, rejection, love, and loss. Much like any relationship with imperfect people, church brings a host of feelings, and for some, it just feels hard.

But does that mean it has no place in our lives? God is clear about the importance of the Church and gathering with other believers. But that may not help when you’re walking through a hard season.

Sometimes the words about church sound simple but feel hard. Believe me, I know. I’ve had my loss and heartache with church. I am walking out these feelings and changes just like you my friend. The first thing you need to know is that you are not alone.

“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.” (Isaiah 41:10)

God reminds us of His presence with us, always. That means that He is present with you even as you walk through this hard season.
