TRIALS...or TEMPTATIONS?!?!


Why do you think that just because you have God in your life that things will be easy?
John 16:33 says, "In this world you will have trouble...but take heart; I have overcome the world."
Notice that He did not say that we MIGHT have trouble in this world, but instead, He specifically says that we WILL have trouble. Yes, you will still ...go through trials and persecutions: It is guaranteed!! And PLEASE stop mis-quoting scripture by saying "God wont give us more than we can handle." That is not what the bible says!! 1 Cor 10:13-15 13~ 'No temptation has overtaken you except such as is COMMON to man (its nothing new); but God is faithful, who will not ALLOW YOU TO BE TEMPTED beyond what you are able, BUT with that temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it.' So get it right: Yes you WILL go through things, you WILL be tempted and but God WILL make a way OUT...but the REAL question you need to honestly ask yourself is: do you really want to take the 'escape'...or are you enjoying the tempations, and everything that come with them? Hmmm...
God wants to remove all 'burdens' and 'yokes' from your life...but guess what I learned: many people dont want Him to!!! Yes, He'll free you...but some people are HAPPIER being enslaved!! He gives you an open door, but you wont walk through it. Then when life gets hard, you get mad & blame HIM.
...But when YOU CHOOSE to speed along a collision course, despite every Flashing Warning sign you see...Crashing is inevitable!

    We have to reflect and fast deep, so that we can be honest about our assessment and our intent.

    Also, sometimes we will submit our strength of being wild for the comfort of domestication and comfort. We can not blame God because we took the easy way out and have deviated from our path to Greatness. Dont let your standards and criteria become thresholds for failure.
