The Bible doesn't shy away from the fact that this life is difficult; in fact it says, "many are the afflictions of the righteous" (Psalm 34:19a). But in that difficulty, through those trials and afflictions there is hope. In his sermon on Psalm 34, Pastor Jim Schultz walks through the trials that David was experiencing when he wrote this Psalm and how in the midst of it, he still found hope. In this life we will face many trials; may we walk through them with our hope set on the Lord.
