We have all faced trials and tribulations in our lifetime that have been extremely painful. While tribulations of chance require perseverance to endure, tribulations of discipline require repentance. Those who chose to embrace gratifying their own sinful desires become entangled and slip into a valley that can only be escaped through the power of God. To climb back up the mountain of righteousness one must throw off complacency and embrace a genuine desire to seek and obtain forgiveness through confession. Turn from your evil ways, cry out to God for mercy and pray that He who summoned the enemy might also defeat them!
