Consider it a sheer gift, friends, when tests and challenges come to you from all sides. You know that under pressure, your faith-life is forced in the open and shows its true colours. So don't try to get out of anything prematurely. Let it do its work so you become mature and well-developed, not deficient in any way.
-JAMES 1:2-4 THE MESSAGE
Not to say I am under great pressure now. Just that there are so many things to be done and so little time. It is hard not to get a little distressed every now and then. However, after the calming down of the senses, the level of distress fluctuates. The mind is although not at ease, more intact and able to discern properly.
Take it as a journey of discovery and you will be surprised at what awaits you in the end. As in true colours, well, what a revelation they can be. Life, we can never expect the norm..
I have been scorned at(mostly behind my back), been thrown out of a supposingly cordial friendship just because of outer judgements. There are reasons to why I react in a certain way. Guess if they only tried to dig deeper, they would understand and not just walk away.
The realities of life are not always harsh but then be prepared for more trials. One can be easily swept away by strong tides.
Again, I ask of this. Be brave. Be beautiful inside.
