Life is full of challenges, but the Word of God assures us of His help. God helped Moses lead the Israelites, Joshua conquer lands, and David defeat enemies.

Everybody wants what they want and nobody sacrifices for the other. Therefore, placing trust in people and expecting them to be absolutely moral and selfless in their decisions with regards to others, is a difficult and untenable road.
