Living as a Christian is not easy, is it? We have to meet a lot of demands. These demands pose to be a great burden everyday. Have you ever thought why? Have you ever wondered why God puts us into a testing furnace everyday? Well, the answer lies in us? Have you ever heard of the proverb 'Beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder'? Similiarly the answer lies in the manner of perception of our trials and everyday tribulations.
Iam no different from the most of you. I am a 'born christian' who never lived a christian. I believed and 'prayed' to God so that he might fulfill my desires and wishes. As far as I was concerned he was just a ritual, a mere ritual. But then, when he chose me to know Him, when he redeemed me of the awful gulf of severe sin, things changed forever.
Trials are the cross that we have to bear everyday not to 'please God' but just and only just to tell him that we love him. After all is that not the prime purpose why Jesus hung on the cross. His Love for us did not want us to suffer eternal hell and so he underwent all that a commoner would not even dream of. He died bearing all the shame and sin for our sake. During our trials we have to stand up for JESUS by going through it with a happy heart.
So next time when clouds cover your life, stand up for Jesus. Not because it is going to give you eternity, because God loves you beyond human comprehension.
