Living in World of Tribulation


John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.

There is no doubt about it. Being a Christian does not exempt you from bad things not happening. Many doubt God’s love and care when bad things happen. “If He is a God of love, why did He let this happen?” The journey we walk is filled with events that will cause us to search our heart and test our faith. In a world that is filled with darkness, will we let our light shine, or will we let the darkness shut our light out? Jesus said, when you face hard times and life situations become hard to bare, He says, “cheer up, I have this under control”. It is human to take our eyes off the Master of the sea and look around at the billowing waves. But Jesus has promise not to leave us or forsake us. The Comforter has come to cheer us up and help us to withstand the darkness, and let our light shine. This world is full of darkness and tribulation. May the light of Christ in you pierce the darkness of this world.
