EARTHQUAKE

in #sc-v5 years ago

Man is exposed to natural catastrophes, many of them have brought a lot of pain, except for a few exceptions like the following story, told by a person who experienced a dramatic experience. During the earthquake that struck Chile in 1960, he was in Concepción, a city in the south of that country, capital of the province of Concepción, founded on October 5, 1550. For several days they were housed in the house of some missionaries Americans. Remember that each night they did the family service and then went to their bedrooms to rest, the earth was still trembling but they were peaceful and they slept peacefully. A neighbor lady, she slept at night inside her car, because of the fear she felt, until she approached them, saying, - I envy your faith, I can not understand how they can sing and then sleep as if nothing happened ... you have something that I do not have, it was a beautiful opportunity to witness to the Lord Jesus.

Earthquake.

God is our refuge and strength, our help in times of trouble. Therefore, we will not fear, although the earth is removed, and the mountains are transferred to the heart of the sea. Psalm 46: 1.2

Cases like history happen often. No one is free, on the face of the earth, to suffer any event that puts him in danger, it can be a natural disaster, an illness, or a car accident, perhaps a fall, or a run over, in short, anything that affects your physical or emotional state. The great difference, that can be observed in the story, is that the non-believer does not have to cling to, unlike the son and daughter of God who places his trust in God. Fear or fear is not part of the believer's language. The biblical teaching does not say that there will be no dramatic situations around the son of God, on the contrary, it indicates that it will be help in the tribulation, or if the earth trembles like in an earthquake, or that a cataclysm happens like the mountains falling into the sea, it can happen, but the son of God will be quiet, trusting in the Lord always, and his heart will be still.

@yridelys There is no greater promise than knowing that God will comfort us in the midst of affliction. The Lord calls us to remember that in the midst of our suffering, however painful it may be, there is a glorious purpose.

@yridelys, The promise of God is that we will be comforted in the midst of the tribulation.
