Straying away from fellowship with God is a war against our spirit consciousness and we must give all due diligence to come home because we cannot afford to lose heart now, at the break of dawn.
The peace of God is a surge of energy that keeps us calm in the storm. There's energy in God's peace! Leverage on that energy, it's worth it!
Our true strength is in vulnerability. Our growth may not be a bed of roses but we'll be okay because the rose of Sharon is our Father! And He's on our side!
