YOU CAN MAKE IT IF YOU TRY

By Dr. Joe Cephus Bigham Sr.

As far as I can tell, in 1991 Johnny Adams recorded a powerful song titled “You Can Make It If You Try.” Those words still echo with truth today. They remind us that no matter what obstacles rise before us, there is a strength greater than our struggle.

We all face moments when decisions feel heavy, confusing, or overwhelming. Life will present challenges that test our patience, our endurance, and our faith. But with God on our side, we are never left to fight alone.

Faith doesn’t always remove the difficulty—but it gives us the courage to walk through it. It gives clarity when confusion clouds our way. It reminds us that even when the road is rough, we can make it if we try—and if we trust the One who guides us.

Keep pressing forward. Keep believing. God has already equipped you to conquer whatever stands before you.

You can make it… because He is with you.
