Trials & Tribulations

Today is Thursday, and I am thankful for the day made before me by the Lord. So much awaits me. So much that I don't even know what to expect. The trials and tribulations are only a test of my faith. For there is nothing I cannot endure because the Lord's will is for me to persevere. Through every test of faith, I am made greater in His image.

I thank God for glory after the storm though I cannot see clearly ahead from the fog of the nations' sin. The world is being destroyed, but only to be made greater again. There has been so much evil living amongst us, trying and tempting our Spirits. The Lord would never tempt us to indulge in the madness of the world, but evil is disguised and deceitful.

Look at it as a trial. A court case. The world is the court room, and within the room we have the bodies which make up the court. The judge, the jury, and the different appointed officials of law. Each individual case is centered around the plaintiff, the person whom filed the case with the law; and the defendant, the person being accused of breaking law against the plaintiff.

During the trial process, each person will have a chance to confess the acts which led to their tribulations. The jury, and each body within the court hears the confessions and form an opinion based on the things that they have heard, or artifacts they have seen that make-up the story.

But that is just it. The jury judges the story because they cannot live the moments in which the plaintiff and defendant did. A story can be so precisely put together, and we can still lack the true interpretation of what happened... simply because we did not live it.

Life gives us trials everyday, and we all go through the pains of tribulations. Each of our trials and tribulations will look and feel different, and that is why the Lord says be slow to judge.

Just give Him glory. Let His power work through us as the vessels of His love.

It is time we discern our hearts and mind from the world and come near to God, as He is always near to us. He can only work through us when our hearts are clean and pure.

Cleanse your mind from the trials and do not let your heart be troubled by the tribulations. Stay faithful; full of courage, love and joy. Always rejoice and give praise through the trials and tribulations, for praise is our declaration of FAITH.

We are one in faith.
