Trials and Temptations

Have you ever go through a lot of difficulties all at once? Think that you can never get out of it. And you know you  believe in God and Jesus Christ. But why do many bad things happen to good people?
The answer is simple: If you are truly reborn Christians and you go through many obstacles and problems in your life, you are being tested in faith. By testing your faith you gained perseverance. God wants to know if you are going to turn to him in your times of troubles or are you going to try to use your own strength and knowledge to get through it. He has given us each enough grace to face the troubles but we only need to ask him for help and put our faith and trust in him. Christians faces obstacles to gain strength in Faith. But the rest of the world faces troubles because Satan wants to destroyed them. They belong to him because they have not accept Jesus Christ as their savior. Jesus overcome the world, death, sins and Satan himself at the Cross at Golgotha. He rise up again three days after he died. He now stay at the right hand of God the Father. So if we have Jesus, Satan cannot touch us without his permission, because we are the child of God. In James 1:2-4 "Consider it pure Joy, my brothers, when you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish its work so that you may be made mature and complete not lacking anything." So we should rejoice and be glad in the Lord always through good, and through bad times. By doing that we shall dwell in the peaceful place that God promise us.
