I guess when i stick close to God, He will help me in all my trials...
We had a sermon yesterday. The sermon to me yesterday was a reinforcement of what God had been talking to me recently. The passage was from 2 Cor 4:7-15..treasures in the jars of clay. The speaker ended by saying that he wants to live simply. Sometimes we are too entangled with the affairs of the world, and as a result we are "complicated". The main things he mentioned. We must have the willingness to both surrender and suffer. It is hard to want to suffer. Nobody wants trials. I don't like it especially when i know that each day in the office is a form of trial to me. However God promises us a very wonderful verse which he spoke to me earlier and just yesterday as well-verse 15. "For our light and momentary afflictions is acheiving for us an eternal weight of glory that far outweights them all. For what is seen is transient, but what is unseen is eternal". What a wonderul verse right. I know my afflictions are temporal, what is unseen is too. And i know that this verse gives me much encouragement to know that there is an end to all the sufferings in this world. What comes out from it is something (quoting from the speaker) "more better". I am looking forward for that day to come. So meanwhile, while on this earth, as i always prayed, pls grant me the grace to move on my every trial.
Thank you.
