Bible Note: Cheryl, Sorry for that last no-name (COL.1:24)response, I'm new at this but you answered my pre-post marital problem so succinctly, I tried to help you in kind.(Disciple's Study Bible) After reading the entire context, I was enlightened by the final verse, 1:29. this, I believe, is the key to struggling, suffering and adversity.
