Word of God says in Romans 8:18 - I consider that the sufferings of this
present time are not worth comparing with the Glory about to be revealed to us.
We were all going
through one or the other sufferings in our life and those who were outside the suffering
were enjoying for a moment and all of a sudden they are also caught up in the
global crisis of Corona virus from past few months.
Sufferings don’t come by
chance in our life but it comes because of the great mercy of God to save our
soul from the fire of hell.
When sufferings come in
our life instead of running around behind retreat centre and preachers let us
boldly go through it as there will be great reward attached to it. We have to
follow the example of so many saints who suffered joyfully and with their inspiration
we will get courage to boldly face it.
We have to consider
ourselves blessed when God allows suffering in our life because through that
suffering something great is going to flow into our life.
When we are going
through sufferings we have to go through unimaginable pains and on top of that
we have to bear all the gossipers, persecutors and false accusers. This will
make us feel discouraged many a times. No matter what happens we should not
quit and move forward so that we may see the Glory of God shining in our life.
Any suffering coming in
our life makes us better person if we accept it joyfully and also we can become
bitter when we complain and grumble. It is better to suffer here instead of
suffering in purgatory temporally or in hell eternally after our death. God
knows exactly when to deliver us and till then we have to be patient and
co-operate with God to experience great outcome.
If we co-operate with
God when we are going through sufferings then surely God will deliver us from
that suffering in few month or few years according to His purpose.
If we rebel,
complain and grumble by not co-operating with God then we may have to live with
it for rest of our life like the Israelites who started from Egypt to the
promise land with great hope and all who were aged 21 and above never reached
the promised land but perished in the desert because of rebelling, complaining and
grumbling.
