Remembering

It's part of the Christian life. The roller coaster ride of faith. The doubts that assail us. The questions that riddle our minds. To wonder when trials would end.

I am no exception. I go through the same ride.

I mentioned it to a friend tonight. Many fear death but in fact it is easier to die, especially if you know where you are going. Wonderful to be in heaven.

Life is harder. Especially if uncertainties assault your mind. But I remember what Paul said : to live is Christ and to die is gain. A good reminder. God has a purpose for my life.

Sometimes, I dare to ask, why. Especially when I read Solomon's words that everything is meaningless. But he himself said in the end: God will judge us for everything we do, including every secret thing, whether good or bad.

Trials make us persevere and develop our faith in Him. That I admit. That I know.

But still, I need to be reminded. I am special in my God's eyes. He died for me. I am loved. Thank God for magic tricks that allow us to remember this truth.(www.myfathersworld.us)

Thank God for friends who assure me that nothing done for Him is in vain.

Thank God for a wonderful news that a love one is now finally a part of the King's family.

Little things. Big things. I need to know. I need to be reminded.

I need to remember.
