Take your part in suffering, as a loyal soldier of Christ Jesus. 2 Timothy 2:3
Do you care to know why I love going through troubles? “Troubles are like washing machines, they twist, turn and knock us around, but in the end we come out cleaner, brighter, and better than before. In other word, trouble is a fuel we need to burn in the journey of life. It is essential to love our good times, and to embrace our trouble times too. Even, the book of Ecclesiastes stated that in the days of good we should rejoice, and to be considering in the time of adversity. In order to overpower your troubles, you must be stronger than the trouble itself. Be strong with a realization that whatever trouble that comes to you either big or small is not beyond your control. Determine not to be deterrent by the troubles in your path, but rather grow and use it as a stepping stones to greatness.
Better still, if we should compare our troubles or challenges with that of others, we would surely realize that there are those whose troubles would dwarf ours, and make our trouble look like a minor matter. So therefore, trouble is inevitable, even if you don’t look for it, it would find you, and when it surfaces, bring it to God’s in prayer, if devil bring it to you, God would bring out you through it. God will not bring us to trouble water to drown us, but to cleanse us. Tell your trouble, you cannot defeat me because I am bigger than you. There are so many times in my life that God has turned my troubles to joy, he will do the same for you. Remember; when God pushes you to the sea of troubles, trust him fully, because two things can happen, either he carries you behind his back, or he will teach you how to swim.
