Living a life is like studying at school. Students get lessons from different teachers and they have to pass the final exam. Ready or not, they are expected to pass the exams. They will study hard to get good results. However, their duty is not only about achieving good result but also on how they prepare themselves to face the exams, how they discipline themselves to study and how they do the exams without cheating. These processes will show their quality as a student.
What we have been through right now is probably similar to it. Jesus lets us face trials and tribulations. It looks likes crisis, pain and storms are unending parts in our life. But, How is our response to the life's trials? Have we prepared ourselves well? Have we learned God's words in The Bible? God never promises our life free from problems. Yet, he always stands by our side and watches us. He will always be there for any circumstances.
Through hard time, we can depend on Him and feel his miracles. Our faith and character will grow through those painful process. God has already built Himself in our lives so that his image will be perfectly seen in our lives. Don't worry for all of your burden and processes. You just have to understand God's plans behind. Thus, you will see how God fulfills His plan of your life. You will also receive more valuable and precious things in your life.
