Life is filled with problems; some we create for ourselves, some our loved ones create for us, and others which are completely beyond our control. These are ALL trials which TEST our faith. Anyone can have faith in God during fair weather; BUT, the true TEST of our faith is how we respond during stormy weather, when we cant see our hand in front of our face. Most Christians have a very weak faith, a shallow faith, a temporary faith; which when the winds of tempest arise, they quit and behave no better than the heathen. Christ should be our example during our times of pain, mental anguish and suffering. I know the overwhelming feeling of mental anguish. Theres been times in my life when Id wished trials will never come my way . Ah, but God promised in Psalm 30:5 that weeping only endureth for a night, but joy cometh in the morning Amen!!! . I know what its like to suffer overwhelming, emotional, pain. I know what its like to wake up from a nightmare to a bigger nightmare, unable to do anything about the situation. There have been many times in my life, when every second seemed like an hour, and every hour like a day, and every day like a never ending eternity. At those times, the only friend I had in the world was the Bible. I have learned during these times that we need to keep our eyes on the Lord. Do you think God is pleased by our faith only during the good times? What about ones faith during the storms of life? A faith must be tested. The Word of God says in Psalm 30:5, ...weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning. There is always Light at the end of the tunnel for a Christian. God will one day wipe away all tears, and there will be no more pain (Revelation 21:4). What a day that will be! Only Jesus Christ can make everything right, when life seems so wrong. Perhaps you feel that nothing you could ever do can make things right in your life. May I say, friend, that is why Jesus came into the world, i.e., to make things right for us, because we cannot. Jesus came to make everything right through His blood sacrifice. Thanks be to God, Jesus has paid our sin debt, to set us free from the enslavement of sin (John 8:32-36). Jesus Christ has set the believer free from the curse of the Law. Amen! This earthly life will soon be oer and we will be on Heavens golden shore. We are PROMISED in Romans 8:28 that ALL THINGS will ...work together for good.Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved (Psalm 55:22). Amen . GloriaMcMiller.
