Biblical Answer

When we face difficulties and struggles in life, we have two choices: we can either give up or seek help and support. In the Bible, Jesus teaches us that we should not try to survive on our own, but rather seek His guidance and strength. He says, "I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst" (John 6:35). This means that we should not rely on our own strength and abilities to overcome our struggles, but rather seek to be nourished by God's love and guidance.

As we navigate our struggles, it's essential to be aware of the enemy's tactics. Satan will try to deceive us and make us believe that we can handle our struggles on our own. But Jesus warns us to be vigilant and not give the enemy a seat at our table. He says, "Resist the devil and he will flee from you" (James 4:7). This means that we should resist the devil's lies and temptations, and instead, seek to be filled with God's love and truth.

To survive our struggles, we need to find community and support. The Bible teaches us that we are not alone in our struggles, and that we should seek out others who can encourage and support us. Jesus says, "For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them" (Matthew 18:20). This means that when we gather with others who share our faith, we can find strength and support in our struggles. We can also find community through small groups, Bible studies, and other forms of discipleship. By seeking help and support from others, we can overcome our struggles and find the strength we need to survive.
