Life is always difficult, and I did say that in the world you would have tribulation, but be of good cheer I have overcome the world. I overcame the world for your sake, so that I can infuse you with My strength to get through every trial you face in life.
I usually do not intervene to stop the trials you will experience in life. I did not stop the great trial that Peter was going to face. I knew that Satan was going to sift him as wheat and I told him this. That sifting would occur when Peter gave into the temptation to deny Me three times. I had the power to stop that from happening to Peter, but I did not. I simply told him that I would pray that his faith would not fail him.
Peter recognized for the first time his own weakness when I allowed him to go through that trial. He realized that without My strength he could not overcome temptation. Keep in mind that when you are going through trials that I am also praying that your faith in Me not fail.
