[QUOTE="CurtisB, post: 1984374, member: 124636"] All live is filled with hard work and sacrifice, anyway. Is there enjoyment? Of course, just as there are times of sorrow, tribulation. boredom, and anxiety. Christ didn't promise peace on this side of Heaven. But every life is filled with these moments. That is pretty much the extent of comfort the Bible provides. That and grace. Living a Christ-like life is hard, and takes constant practice, constant study on the word of God, and yes, some sacrifice and hard work. But because of the gift of grace, we don't have to be perfect. That is the other form of comfort. Mistakes don't matter, only the desire to live according to the scriptures. [/QUOTE]
