    <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>In the very beginning, after Paul tells his readers that he is the author of the letter to the church in Rome, he establishes his authority as an apostle, he lets us know where his authority comes from and he immediately shifts the focus to Jesus. After giving his readers a short run down as to what Jesus did and what the good news is all about, Paul tells the Gentiles at the church in Rome that they have been called by God and do belong to Him because they heard the message of the gospel and were obedient which brings glory to God. Our lives as God’s chosen people, are to bring Him glory and we should strive to be holy as God is holy.
