“But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.” 1. Peter 5:10

In general when we suffer, a question pops our mind-

  • Why God has allowed these trials, worries, anxieties, and difficulties? 
  • Will the troubles and suffering actually make me a refined person in Christ? 
  • Is it possible for me to endure the difficulties patiently?
  •  When will I walk in straight path away from such hitches?
"We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair;persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed. 2 Corinthians 4:8-9

 Though we are targeted always, for no reason, crushed to humiliate us or even degrading through their actions, make us feel embarrassed and looked down by their scornful behavior, it is our bound duty to be patient before God, and go through that silently. Remember We are not the losers but they are.

Grain must be ground to make bread; 
   so one does not go on threshing it forever. 
The wheels of a threshing cart may be rolled over it, 
   but one does not use horses to grind grain. 
All this also comes from the LORD Almighty, 
   whose plan is wonderful, 
   whose wisdom is magnificent". Isaiah 28:28


The above verse consoles us saying we will not be taken to task by these evil people always and at all times. Troubles are short lived. Go about your chosen path and  at the end we can see a beautiful remedy waiting for us. You can feel the gentle touch of God caring you through these troubles in a peaceful way. Nothing you are going to loose in this period but on the contrary you are going under stand the working of God Almighty.

Praise the Lord

GOD BLESS
