James 1: 12
NIV
“Blessed is the one who perseveres under trial
because, having stood the test, that person will receive the crown of life that
the Lord has promised to those who love him.”
Looking at how Abraham handled this test makes
me feel ashamed of myself. I almost failed my own personal test. I was sitting
in church on Sunday and listening to the preacher. "This is a hypothetic
story." he said "There was this beautiful young woman, she loved the
LORD God with all her heart and soul. She couldn't stop talking about
him." he continued "She married a man that didn't care about God and
didn't want to serve God. After so many accusations and curse she finally gave
up on God. She decides she was going to do what her husband does.
Unfortunately, she died and her husband stood at her graveside. He thought, wow
she was actually a beautiful Christian woman. I want to become a
Christian." he continued "Her soul was lost but her husband finally
came around."
I thought about the story and it struck me, yes
I am facing the same situation and I almost gave up on God. When I heard this
message decided that I was going to serve my God never mind the accusations. I will
do what God tells me to do.
I prayed about my marriage and I have placed it
before God. His Will be done.
Prayer
LORD God accepts my
apologies for doubting You, forgive me for almost letting go of You. I repent
and draw closer to You. I love You Lord in Jesus Christ Name. Amen
