Trails & Tribulations are meant to test our faith

My brothers and sisters in Christ when you face trails and tribulations consider it pure joy. This is the testing of our faith which produces perseverance and endurance!! We can LEARN a lot about God, ourselves and others through the storms that we are being faced with..
We must not waste our energy trying to figure out the WHY’S instead we must PRAY!! Asking God to shield us, protect us and cover us in the blood of Christ so we can stand against the devils evil schemes in the midst of our trails and tribulations. Asking God what is his will for our life. Asking God for his guidance in our life and the strength that is needed to withstand the storms we face.. Most importantly we must be grateful for the things that we do have instead of focusing our attention on the things that we don’t have ~ Be THANKFUL.. A soul that is filled with gratitude goes a long way with God.. We should be using our brokenness and our pain to help heal someone, speak kind words to someone, sit and talk with the elderly, feed the poor, donate our time to help our communities, ministering to someone ~ we all should be HELPING SOMEONE IN NEED!! We will learn that often times someone out there has it way worse than you and I and our pain diminishes because we wake up to the harsh reality of a dying world that is in desperate need for salvation!!
We should all keep clean houses and get rid of all negativity & evil from our life’s ~ we need to just simply REMOVE IT!!
Negativity, depression,suicidal thoughts, drugs, fighting, corrupted music, partying, alcohol, sexual immorality, profanity, corrupted words, abuse, etc are NOT gifts from God but simply the devil toying with our minds and keeping us preoccupied with the things of this world to keep our focus off of GOD!! Break free from the chains the devil uses to bind you with because there is freedom found in CHRIST!!!
Our time here on earth is so very short and everything here is so temporary but ETERNITY is FOREVER!!! Have you asked yourself “Where will I go when I die?!” Heaven and Hell are very real and depending on how we live our lives here will determine where we will spend eternity!! Don’t be a LOST soul!! Spend your time here getting to know GOD because it will be the best relationship you could ever ask for and when you find him you will see the true blessings in life!!!
Our lives should represent Christ – WE should be looking more like Christ and LESS like ourselves everyday!! Jesus was tempted and he faced MANY trials worse than any trail we have ever been faced with!!! He died so that we may be saved ~ Our salvation can be found at the cross with JESUS!! Through true repentances and accepting Jesus Christ as your personal savior! Jesus is the way, the truth and the life and no one come to the father but through him.
Be thankful for the storms because often times our storms can teach us something and draw us closer to God and lead us to our Salvation!
A man that spends time on his knees in prayer, is a blessed man!!!
God says “Be STILL and know that I am GOD”
God Bless and Love you all
