“In the world you’ll have trouble.
But cheer up! I have overcome the world.”
-JOHN 16:33
In
the world we will experience temptations, testings, and trials. We will
experience persecution, tribulation, and afflictions of soul and body.
We will experience mistreatment and misunderstanding. It is not a
question of God allowing or not allowing things to happen. It is part of
living. Some things we do to ourselves, other things we do to each
other. Our Father knows about every bird which falls to the ground, but
He does
not always prevent it from falling.
What
are we to learn from this? That our response to what happens is more
important than what happens. Here is a mystery: one man’s experience
drives him to curse God, while another man’s identical experience drives
him to bless God. Your response to what happens is more important than
what happens.
