What a week this has been. It has been good at times and hard at times. We have seen the highs and lows of life this week. But, isn’t this what life is all about? Nowhere in the Bible does God say life was going to be a “Rose Garden”. In fact, the Bible says almost the opposite. Note what Jesus said in the following words: “John 16:33: These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world”.
Note a few things mentioned in this Verse.
1. In Christ we will have Peace
2. In the World we will have Tribulation
3. Be Happy, for Christ has overcome the World
So, according to this Verse of Scripture, we can have peace and assurance with God even when we are going through the Trials and Tribulations of this world. We all have our mountain tops. However, we also all have our valleys. In addition, remember this. It is in the Valley where we learn the most. While on the Mountain Top, we are having fun and excited. In the Valley is when we call on God the most. Be of Good Cheer, for Christ has overcome this World.
