Softer to Me-Relient K

Life could you be a little softer to me
Life could you be a more gentle to me

We all have those days where it feels like the walls are crashing in on us. As followers of Christ, we walk a narrow and hard road. We fight the daily battle of flesh verses Spirit. We also fight against the pressures of the world. We become weary and tired with all the pain and suffering in the world. I, like Relient K, have had many days where I ask the world to be softer to me. But then I stop and remember that no matter how hard life may seem, I serve a God who shares in suffering.

These things I have spoken to you, so that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage; I have overcome the world." John 16:33 (NASB)

Relient K continues their song with this hope:

Yeah I know this is a selfish plea
Because Christ sacrificed his flesh
On the cross for me
But this world is hard
It's cruel and I wish it could be
Softer to me

Christ suffered on the cross so that we may have the hope that though this is a cruel world, we will reign with Him in glory. Life will never get easier. We will have good days and bad days, victories and defeats, temptations and triumphs; and through it all we must look to Christ who overcame it all so that we will overcome as well.
