Have you ever felt like the whole world was caving in around you? Did you find yourself thinking Well, I’m not gonna make it out of this one. Did you make it? Are you still struggling? I have good news. It’s all a test.
That’s right. God is giving you a test. No, it’s not because he is some mean old teacher that just likes giving ridiculously hard tests in biology class.
It’s not because he wants us to prove ourselves to him either. I mean, why would he need to? He knows each and every single one of us better than we do and he absolutely knows if we are worthy of Him or not.
If that’s true, then why would he test us?
The answer: He is trying to show us how worthy we are of Him. No, we didn’t make ourselves worthy. God made us worthy through Jesus.
What do I do if I fail a test?
Do the exact same thing that you would do if you failed a test at school.
1. Do some make-up work (a.k.a. go to Reconciliation)
2. Study for the next one (a.k.a. praying)
3. Help others with their tests
I have to say right now that I am not encouraging cheating on tests at school. I am simply saying that if you have a friend that is going through a tough time, help them out as best as you can. In doing so, you may find out something about yourself that will help you with your next trial.
Oh, by the way, God will never give us a test that we cant pass.
