After listening to the lesson, the sharing is as follows

Many people may think that after believing in the Lord, everything is going well, and God can answer Our requests. We can think about whether we have encountered difficulties during the process of believing in the Lord? Sometimes when we pray to the Lord, we don’t see God’s reply right away. But God is a powerful Lord, and by the Lord’s power, he should allow us to avoid some problems and difficulties. Why do we still encounter tribulations? Why do we have to suffer?

Because of our weakness, in our life and choices, we often choose not to conform to God’s will rather than to choose suffering. When we face suffering, we will shrink back and feel afraid, because the problems we face are too hard to imagine. , I really want to use a more comfortable method to face the problem and make the decision I want. But the Bible tells us not to value sin, because we choose sin more than suffering. The sin in the Bible does not mean committing a great sin to be counted as sin, but as long as we know what is good and don’t do it, it is sin, because we despise God’s grace to us.

After believing in the Lord, after accepting suffering, we must embark on the road of suffering. We can’t think of Jesus as it’s okay for You to suffer. Can you leave grace to us? We should understand the meaning of suffering. If we pray, we always ask God to give us success. After a long time, it will make us unable to resist. When we encounter problems, we are powerless to resist. When we encounter temptations, we will fall into the trap of the devil. Suffering is to learn the truth of God. If life is smooth and without suffering, it will be difficult to learn lessons . Yes, because of suffering, we can refine gold. Suffering can make us pray more. In suffering, our prayers are the most sincere. In suffering, we realize that our ability is limited and how small we are. We need the Lord, kneel before God, pray sincerely, put down ourselves, regard ourselves as humble, and look up to the heavenly Father with a godly heart.

Human experience, life is hard to predict, we are strangers in the world, we are sojourners, everything in the world will pass, we are just passing by, despise things in the world, don’t look at everything by the standards of the world, what we suffer Suffering is also grace, believe that God has a good will, no matter when and where, whether in good times or bad, put your faith in your heart, praise and call on God with your heart and mouth, rely on God to make your faith stronger, learn to live in In the process of suffering, build up faith and believe in God. Jesus said, we have suffering in the world, but we have peace in our hearts. What we should care about is whether we are ready before we leave the world, and whether we have removed our scum. , you can be worthy of the kingdom of God and enter the beautiful home that God has promised; if you are going through hardships, please don’t blame God, think about the circumstances in which the ancient saints were persecuted and even lost their lives; think about the crucifixion of Jesus, Jesus bears the pain of sin for everyone, and then turns to look at our own pain, then it will not be so uncomfortable.

God will not let us face suffering alone. What we should rejoice is that the greatest comfort in life is that no matter what circumstances we are in, God is with us, we do not panic when we encounter difficulties, and we leave everything to God. God leads our footsteps, and God arranges life and death. Connect yourself with God in everything you do, and always think of the Lord first. Then, even if we accept the invitation of suffering, 

When faced with adversity, we will never leave God for the rest of our life.

Ask God to give us the confidence and ability to pass through every difficulty ahead, thank God for leading us every step, thank God for planting us carefully, thank God for being with us all the time. May all glory, praise, and power be on the Father in heaven forever, Amen.

(Isaiah 30:20~21) Although the Lord will make you bread with hardship and water with affliction, your teacher will no longer hide; your eyes will see your teacher. Either you turn left or right, and you will hear a voice behind you saying, “This is the way, walk in it.”

(Isaiah 55:8~9) My thoughts are not your thoughts, and my ways are not your ways, says the LORD. As the sky is higher than the earth, so my ways are higher than your ways. , my thoughts are higher than your thoughts.

(Job 36:21) “Be careful, do not turn to evil, For you have preferred this to affliction.

For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.

(1 Thessalonians 3:3) so that no one would be disturbed by these afflictions; for you yourselves know that we have been destined for this.
