"So be truly glad. There is wonderful joy ahead, even though you have to endure many trials for a little while. These trials will show that your faith is genuine. It is being tested as fire tests and purifies gold--though your faith is far more precious than mere gold. So when your faith remains strong through many trials, it will bring you much praise and glory and honor on the day Jesus Christ is revealed to the whole world." I Peter 1:6,7 NLT
We all know that Jesus was crucified for our sins. Put to death only to rise days later. Jesus ascended to heaven with the promise to return. What will you be doing when He returns? We have to stay the course and not let the ills of this world corrupt our ultimate goal, and that is to be welcomed into heaven by The Most High. Life is full of circumstances that will test our faith in Jesus. We must take them as life lessons and use that adversity to build our faith to a level the world cannot penetrate. I believe Jesus is coming back, so in self I try to get better at something everyday. If I shoot for the moon and miss, I'm still amongst the stars. Last time I looked up the stars are above the earth, thus they are above the trails and tribulations this world offers believers to trip is up. Take pride in your faith, learn how to deal with adverse tests of that faith, and prepare for the day Jesus returns. Stay thirsty my friends.....
