No one, and especially God has ever seriously contended that life is easy. Life's paths are strewn with obstacles, boulders, pitfalls and even mountains that challenge the ability to survive, much less overcome and prevail. No person has ever escaped walking through a dense, at times overwhelming landscape of obstacles. Fortunately, though, the truths of the Scriptures reflect that most of our obstacles may be overcome, or at least their effects moderated. Remaining, though, is the one true problem which makes all humanity kin, a problem which we have no ability to solve.
