The journey can get bumpy. Not only do we face rough spots in our own lives, but Jesus said the world as a whole will experience challenges until He returns. There will be deceptions, conflicts, earthquakes, and assorted other troubles that will cause us to cry out for God along the way -- and lead us to anticipate His return.
