Build Your House on the Rock
God doesn't make us suffer (or allow us to suffer), so that we mature. Believing that God is STILL good in the midst of suffering, makes us mature in a healthy way, as we stay in the faith of the Gospel. Otherwise, suffering can turn us into very bitter people.
The bottom line is that whether in suffering or rejoicing, finding our satisfaction and fullness in our union with the God who never changes, makes us realize how dead we are to the things of this world, to the storms AND the holidays in the Caribbeans, to the "haha"s AND the "boohoo"s, and more alive to the unshakable Kingdom, to the reign and the feast of the God of eternity, who rejoices with the sons who were once lost but are now found.
So dive right into this crazy ride called the Cross, and enter into eternity. Leaving your guilt and shame outside, put on the righteousness of Christ: the God who became man to make everything about being man right again with God. And take your time to let it all sink in. Don't resist the goodness, and don't sell it cheap. Resist every evil temptation attempting to approach you like a sneaky salesman to rob you of your innocence.
3 Important steps:
1- Stick to His goodness
2- Stick to His goodness
3- Stick to His goodness and Bon voyage!
