    <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>

  <description>&lt;p&gt;Paul tells the believers in Corinth, “If you think you are standing strong, be careful not to fall.” Why does he say this? Because some of these believers think they have a ticket to do anything they want since they started following Jesus but what Paul is emphasizing to them is this is not the case! They must stop sinning which is what he will plainly tell them later on. He tells them here that God makes a way of escaping temptation. You can so no and flee! Get out of there, out of the situation that has led you to be tempted! Being tempted is not a sin for Jesus was tempted in the wilderness by Satan but he never sinned, and this same Jesus who overcame the enemy and his temptations, has defeated him, and he lives in us through the Holy Spirit! Go and sin no more! &lt;/p&gt;

  <description>&lt;p&gt;Paul has been going on and on about how God has done everything, from creation to salvation to blessing us with blessings in heavenly places, through His Son, Jesus. God has taken care of everything we need to have a relationship with Him as we live this life on earth and in the life to come in eternity. This is God’s plan and He already had this plan in place long before He spoke anything into existence! He knew man would blow it and he had a plan in place, that He would put on flesh, be tempted in every way we are, be the sinless sacrifice so that our sins can be forgiven, rose out of the tomb taking the authority from death and the grave, and now sits at the Father’s right hand interceding for those who accept His wonderful gift of salvation. The gospel, the plan, has been revealed to all.  &lt;/p&gt;
