When
we are facing the problems of life, the first thing we usually do is blaming
others. However, we must realize that whether there is a problem that occurs
because of our personal mistakes or disregard of others, God still has a
wonderful plan for our lives through all these problems. Even when we perform
various actions stupid and embarrassing decision making, God still can make our
mistakes into something beautiful in accordance with His plan. Although someone
intentionally hurt us, God can still make it beautiful for our lives. Even when
the Devil plans evil things in our lives, God can make all these things for our
good.
God's
plan is much greater than the issues and hurts that we are experiencing and
feeling. God has a wonderful plan for our lives! We must try to forget the
wounds of the heart that is temporary and looking far into the future, looking
at a perfect God's plan and goodness and blessings that He has in store for us
after we finished passing through all the issues and events.
Romans
5: 3-4 says :
"And
not only that. We also rejoice in our sufferings, because we know that
suffering produces perseverance, and perseverance lead to resilient and
resilient produces hope. And hope does not disappoint, because the love of God
has been poured out in our hearts by the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
"
So,
what is the purpose of life problems and difficulties we face? God wants us to
learn something from all of these problems. Every storm of life that we face is
like a school of life for us. Every temptation that challenges us as a teacher
who taught us about certain subjects. Every experience we have is an
educational tool for our lives. Every problem we face exist for the development
and growth of our faith and character.
Did
you know that most of us, including those that are slow to learn? Therefore,
when we do not learn something from every problem we face, then the Lord will
create similar problems reappeared in our lives. Why? Because God prefers to
pay attention and care about our character than to see we are in a secure zone
of our lives. He rather wanted to see us grow and have a Christ-like character
that he gave problems that seem to complicate our lives but in the end makes us
grow in accordance with His will.
Probably
most of us are currently facing a very big problem and weight. Perhaps in the
form of severe illness, committing sin and are in a deep sense of guilt,
feeling accused, financial problems or relationship that is not in harmony with
the spouse. Does God care about and say something that can strengthen us when
we are struggling with all these problems? Of course he cares and is always
there for us. God says to each of us, "Do not give up, my child, grew in
faith and become adults."
Let
us learn to surrender to God and face all the problems, challenges and
difficulties of our lives to its conclusion with the strength of his personal
and grew into line with His plan from the beginning when He created each one of
us. GBU!
"And
we know that God causes all things work together for good to them that love
God, to them who are the called according to His purpose." Romans 8:28
