Contrary to popular belief, the life that you live will not
always peaceful. As long as you dwell on
this earth, there will be trials and tribulations that you must contend
with. Unfortunately, many people are not
prepared to handle the daily struggles that continue to tempt them. The Bible speaks of having longsuffering,
which is patient endurance and steadfastness during times of provocation, ill
will, and retaliation (Hindson). To be
victorious in life, it will be necessary to learn the art of handling life’s
problems without losing control. We must
grow to understand that some problems in life will not be resolved quickly;
instead, some may linger for long periods of time. As a believer in Christ, troubles and
stumbling blocks should not cause a departure from the faith or its
principles. Instead, growth in Christ,
will yield the ability to handle stressful situations and unruly people. Regardless of how long you have had to endure
a problem or suffer through a situation, God has given you the ability to count
it all joy. Hold on, call on your
longsuffering, and watch God bring you through.
Keep pressing forward in Christ!
Pastor Sean
