Christ's followers have a good reason to endure tough times. The Lord has assured us in His Word that better times are ahead.
1 Peter 5:6 Humble yourselves therefore under the mighty hand of God, that he may exalt you in due time:
If we will humble (surrender} our will and our worries to the Lord; in His own will and time we will see Him answer.
By strengthening our walk with God through Bible study and prayer, we will see the work of God.
1 Peter 5:7 Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
No one ever cared for me like Jesus.

“I would love to tell you what I think of Jesus, — Since I found in Him a friend so strong and true. — I would tell you how He changed my life completely; — He did something no other friend could do.
Chorus:
“No one ever cared for me like Jesus; — There's no other friend so kind as He. — No one else could take the sin And darkness from me; — O how much He cared for me.
“Ev'ry day He comes to me with new assurance; — More and more I understand His word of love. — But I'll never know just why He came to save me, — Till someday I see His blessed face above.”
