WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE ARE IN TRIAL

in #sc-v5 years ago

Thinking about a test or difficulty is always something that we are not happy to know, there are those who believe that the life of a believer is perfect and there are no difficulties, as if the believing being had an effect of immunity to the difficult circumstances of life, there are also those who see a test the first thing they think is: What have I done wrong? What did I do to deserve this ?, or worse yet, will God have moved away from me?

A few days ago I saw a person say "I do not feel the love of God in these moments", probably going through some difficult or trial situation, within his need and blinded by his pain he thought that God had moved away, and that is usually to live this kind of situations the first thing that comes to mind are all kinds of negative thoughts because we associate the evidence with something bad, and even with a punishment from God, with all the occurrences that our human capacity can understand, we escape from the pain , we return the suffering and that makes us think negative and want to run away before facing the difficulty and learn from it.

For a moment think coldly about the test you are going through, that family situation, that problem with your partner, your economic problem, your illness, any difficult situation that you are living and that has caused in you, which is what you have done in part of some to cry and to feel despair, in one thing we can agree and that is that in the most difficult moments of our life we ​​approach God more often, we want to be all the time praying and asking him to help us, in a few words, we get closer God in hard times, because it is when we need Him the most.

It is difficult to see when pain has blinded our lives, so sometimes we forget that God acts at all times, that he is always doing something, and always with a purpose, God is not like a mother who is taking care of her little son and in a At the moment of neglect, the little one gets injured or something happens to him, no! God is not that kind of person who forgets or neglects himself, but at all times is looking to empower us, make us stronger and mature spiritually.

People who do not know God can think that they are alone, that they are forgotten of God, that they are paying for everything they have done, but ... My brothers, you must be very happy when you are subjected to tests of all kinds. Well, you know that when your faith is tested, you learn to endure suffering with strength. But try to make that strength bring you to perfection, to full maturity, without missing anything. James 1: 2-4 (DHH)

Of how many things we realize when we are on trial, things that we sometimes overlook, as we believe we have faith, but at the time of the test we ask ourselves if we will really get well, we think we have patience, but when we want to use it it is not enough, we consider ourselves strong but we want to flee when the struggle is just beginning, those are the things that God wants to develop in those he loves, because they are the basis of life, they are really necessary, they are weapons, they are capabilities that he wants perfections , and can only be exercised by testing them.

Most times we are in the middle of the test we do not understand what we will learn until it ends, but if you are trusting in God, if you are sure that he loves you and knows what he does then you also know that the end of that test results in victory and growth.

Blessed is the man who endures the test with strength, because when he gets approved, he will receive life as a reward, which is the crown that God has promised to those who love him.
James 1:12 (DHH)

A verse much loved by my @jenniferbrito, "when your faith is put to the test, you learn to endure suffering with strength, but try to make that force take you to perfection, to full maturity, without losing anything." James 1: 2-4 (DHH). When I think of falling I apply it to my life and I recover new strength.
Thanks for sharing.
