Pain and hardship are essential for growth. You can't have Easter Sunday without Good Friday. If you're struggling now, that difficulty is the necessary foundation for your own breakthrough.

All right, so finished church. Amazing part of the message today was this: you don't get Easter Sunday without Good Friday. You just can't. It took the pain, it took the suffering in order to get to the celebration. And yeah, sure, we'd all love that moment where you get the celebration without the pain, but Let's be honest. In seasons where it's easy, in seasons where it's good, you're not learning a lot. You're not growing. You're not really moving anywhere. You're just kind of calm and at rest and enjoying the moment. So if you feel like you're going through pain, remember, Good Friday, then Easter Sunday.
