CONCLUSION

Life

will always be

answer. We will always face tests, circumstances, and

situations that challenge the very core of our con

stability. There will be times when we will encounter moments of

fear, despair, hopelessness, and confusion that will give birth to

doubt that renders us helpless and immobilized. Life will bring us

the unexpected and the unbelievable, sending shock waves through

our traditional convictions and causing us to wonder if there really

is a loving Creator who cares about our plight.

Life will many times hit us from the blind side with obstacles and

pressures that have no pattern. In essence, for each of us, life is an

earthly journey that does not come with a map. I have come to the

conclusion that we were created to live by trust and explore the

unknown with the compass of faith. To live e

we must accept the fact that we will face opportunities to doubt and

that everything we believe will be challenged. This is the nature of

life, and if you live on the planet, tests and trials will be common

and normal.

If you accept the reality of trials and tests as the nature of life on

earth, then you will be neither disappointed nor overwhelmed when

they arrive. In fact, the best weapon against trials is to see them as

tools in the hands of a skillful Sculptor dedicated to the task of

unveiling from the block of your existence a perfected image of the

real you. I challenge you to trust the divine Sculptor and have faith

in His vision of who you really are. May you live a life that

embraces the spirit of the words of the great

James who declared,

Consider it pure joy, my brothers, whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that

the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must

Blessed is the man who perseveres under trial, because when he has stood the test, he will receive

the crown of life that God has promised to those who love Him (James 1:12).

Be inspired by the words of the great patriarch of the church,

Peter, who reiterates the same sentiments in his statement: “In this

you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to

su

greater worth than gold, which perishes even though re

be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus

Christ is revealed” (1 Pet. 1:6-7).

The beloved apostle John further injects this spirit of faith, giving

you and me the secret to overcoming every obstacle in life: “And His

commands are not burdensome, for everyone born of God overcomes the

world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith” (1

John 5:3-4).

The writer of the Book of Hebrews sums it all up in these words:

But My righteous one will live by faith. And if he shrinks back, I will not be pleased with him

(Hebrews 10:38).

And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to Him must believe

that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him (Hebrews 11:6).

So I challenge you to be a faith-

rise to every occasion and face the future with a con

intimidates trials and embarrasses the skeptics, knowing that

nothing can stop the power of your belief. May you live by this

motto: “When in doubt…have faith.” Be always mindful that you

have the image and nature of your Creator, a nature that is fearless,

bold, and stronger than death and life. As long as you believe, you

win. Protect your capacity to believe knowing that everything

except your destiny is temporary. Doubt is not an option, and faith

is a necessity. Live and walk daily by Kingdom faith, and I will see

you on the other side of your trials.
