Description
We are not promised an easy life, but what we are promised is God’s power and presence.
In the midst of frequent difficulties and challenges, God calls us to bank on the eternal truth that we can do all things through Christ who gives us strength (Phil. 4:13). This thirty-day devotional from Michele Howe equips readers to face all of life’s challenges knowing that rescue from God is always close by when we need it most. Trying circumstances don’t have to overwhelm us—when we put the full weight of our trust in God, we can have confidence that God is always with us, working
out His good and perfect will in our lives. Yes, we can do hard things, it is possible because it is promised. Come learn how the God of the impossible can equip you to do hard things in your life for your good and His glory.

“Michele’s book speaks volumes to the discouraged and encourages her readers to say ‘yes’ when everything feels like ‘no.’ It’s trusting God in seasons of doubt and facing the unknown challenges that come along with faith! In Genesis 18:14, the Lord said to Sarah, ‘Is there anything too hard for the Lord?’ Once again, Michele has pointed us in the right direction: to rely on God when facing hard things, as He walks us through and gives us hope and a future.”

Michele Howe steps courageously into the truth that believers are not exempt from the trials of life. Equipped with the wisdom of her own experience with hard things, she speaks with compassion and biblical clarity in this collection of thirty devotional readings. Her message is clear: By faith we look to God’s past provision, commit each new day to Him, and then trust Him for
grace to face the future with courage. Each chapter reinforces the reader’s hope in Jesus’s two-part promise found in John 16:33. Yes, ‘in this world you will have tribulation,’ but never forget Part 2: Jesus said, I have overcome the world.’”
