Life Demands Struggle – Daily Wisdom
Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps. We are on Day 1930 of our Trek, and it’s time to explore another nugget of wisdom, which includes an inspirational quote and some wise words from Gramps for today’s trek. Wisdom is the final frontier in gaining true knowledge. So we are on a daily trek to create a legacy of wisdom, seek out discernment and insights, and boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before.

Hello, my friend; this is Gramps. Thanks for coming along on today’s trek as we increase Wisdom and Create a Living Legacy. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Proverbs%2016%3A16andversion=NLT (Proverbs 16:16) How much better to get wisdom than gold, and sound judgment than silver! If you apply the words you hear today, over time, it will help you become more healthy, wealthy, and wise as you continue your daily trek of life. So let’s jump right in with today’s nugget:

Today’s quote is from Pope Paul VI, and it is All life demands struggle. Those who have everything given to them become lazy, selfish, and insensitive to the real values of life. The very striving and hard work that we so constantly try to avoid is the major building block in the person we are today.
Life Demands Struggle


While overall, I have a very positive outlook and attitude toward life. I will generally reframe most hostile situations and spin them positively. Despite this, I do realize that life demands struggle. Struggle produces strength and is the building block for a well-balanced and stable life. You may wonder how I can maintain a positive outlook even in a battle. It is because of my faith in a Holy God who is the maker of heaven and earth. He ultimately controls everything that happens and knows what is best for us individually. The peace and joy that I experience amid storms are real, grounded in the faith that God will strengthen and provide what I need for every situation. Struggles are required to refine and mature us. Those who are overly protected or given too much in life will never gain the strength needed to live a rich and satisfying life, which has little to do with possessions we may or may not have. Stand strong in the storms of life, and keep your life full of joy and your thoughts positive.

Remember this—a farmer who plants only a few seeds will get a small crop. But the one who plants generously will get a generous crop. You must each decide in your heart how much to give. And don’t give reluctantly or in response to pressure. “For God loves a person who gives cheerfully.” And God will generously provide all you need. Then you will always have everything you need and plenty left over to share with others. As the Scriptures say,

“They share freely and give generously to the poor.
Their good deeds will be remembered forever.”

For God is the one who provides seed for the farmer and then bread to eat. In the same way, he will provide and increase your resources and then produce a great harvest of generosity in you.

Yes, you will be enriched in every way so that you can always be generous. And when we take your gifts to those who need them, they will thank God. So two good things will result from this ministry of giving—the needs of the believers in Jerusalem will be met, and they will joyfully express their thanks to God.

As a result of your ministry, they will give glory to God. For your generosity to them and to all believers will prove that you are obedient to the Good News of Christ. And they will pray for you with deep affection because of the overflowing grace God has given to you. Thank God for this gift; too wonderful for words!
