It is like if I were trying to move a huge log alone it would seems much harder then if I had 5 other people helping me. So the hardship of moving the log is made less by Gods help which in turn make it not seem like a hardship but just a task.

What I do know is this, God gives His people the strength to go through it, but it still does not mean it will be easy. Jesus (God in the flesh) just before He was to be crucified, when He was praying He was in such mental agony that His sweat was like great drops of blood, now that's not easy.
Some Christians were thrown before lions, some were sawed in two, non of these come across to me as easy.
It is one thing for us to sit where we are and believe that persecution is easy, its another thing to go through it.
