    <description>Let's face it...life sometimes is hard and can just suck. When we are faced with life's challenges we can be discouraged, get tired, and become weary. What we need is motivation, encouragement, and a helping hand that keeps us going. That's the idea of GRINDIT! We find our strength to endure when we focus on Jesus. God's own Son wasn't exempt from life's challenges and He didn't do anything to deserve what he went through! And yet He did...willingly, therefore we find our hope in Him.

  <description>Have you ever been so caught up in something and it has your full attention and yet, you hear a weird noise or someone says something, and bam…the mood is gone. They have killed the moment and it has passed. That’s what happens when Peter, James, and John are watching Jesus being transformed right before their very eyes. He begins to glow a brilliant white and has a conversation with Elijah and Moses! What an awesome moment up until Peter opens his mouth and ruins the moment. A cloud overshadows them and God speaks to them from heaven. As they come down the mountain, Jesus tells them not to say word about what they saw until after he was raised from the dead. After seeing Elijah and Moses talking to Jesus, they get hung up on what Jesus said about raising from the dead. They couldn’t see the forest from the trees! What are some things God wants us to see yet we get hung up on the most trivial stuff?
