Are You Being Made Perfect?
Enrich Your Life!!!
Though He was a Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which He suffered. And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him.
( HEBREWS 5:8-9)
There is a positive aspect to suffering. We all endure suffering to some degree, but the good news is that through it we can become like Jesus. Question: Are u willing to pay wadever price is necessary in order to become like Christ?
There are some things that God can build into ur life only through suffering. Even Jesus, the sinless Son of God, was was complete only after He had endured the suffering His Father had set before Him. Once He had suffered, He was the complete, mature and perfect Savior through whom an entire world could find salvation.
If u become bitter over ur hardships, u close some parts of ur life from God. If u do this, u will never be complete. Some places in ur soul can be reached only by suffering. The Spirit of God has important things to teach u, but u can only learn these lessons in the midst of ur trials. King Saul was made king without even endure hardship, but he never developed the character or maturity to handle God assignment. David spent years in suffering and heartache. When he finally ascended the throne, he was a man after God's own heart.
Don't resent the suffering God allows in ur life. Don't make all ur decisions and invest everything u have into avoiding hardship. Conclusion: God sent His Son to die on the Cross for us.We have to carry Our Cross to follow HIM too.The Cross symbolise the hardship and sufferings in this World.Key: Learn to submit ourselves to HIM and be obedient even when it hurts!God is our Strength and He has the BEST PLAN FOR US IN LIFE...
Clue: Think before u do anything. Don't just react and follow ur emotions. Anticipate situations and plan how to handle them calmly.
