Life is not discriminatory. If you live it, at some point, you will be challenged by it. God doesn’t play favorites. It would appear that part of the reason for living is the challenges. Most likely, a huge part of the reason for living is the challenges. It’s as if God is asking if we will remain faithful in all and any circumstances. For some, when life is going along without a hitch, that is a challenge. A challenge to their faithfulness. Will they stay focused on God when things are going so well, or will they find their focus is on other things. For others, it's when life is difficult that they may find themselves at odds with God and turning away from Him. It doesn't always work that way, though. As the bible teaches, God would actually draw the Israelites to Himself through hardship. They would turn back to God when things got tough.
