. Persecution}
Satan is seriously working overtime. I was grounded a month ago because of some reasons but I was mainly innocent. Through prayer, fasting and a really yearning heart my dad slowly let off and I was allowed to go to church. I was about to post about this when I was grounded yet again, this time based entirely on my sister's actions when I was completely innocent this time. It's extremely annoying, as I can't go to church or even play basketball.
People suffer, even good people, that's a given, and I'm asked how a loving God can co-exist with the reality of suffering. Well take me as a living example. Everytime I went through some turbulent with much suffering or pain, I came out of it a stronger person, with greater knowledge of what to do next, of how God used this situation to help strengthen my faith and how Satan knew more about me than I surmised. Satan has failed everytime God allows him to throw problems at me, while God has the overall win. I still have many weaknesses but as Paul mentioned, God's strength is made perfect in my weakness. So let me boast! 2 Corinthians 11:30 says it well, "If I must boast, I will boast of the things that show my weakness." God is always there for me, and during every trial I've been through, although I may not have felt it every single time, God's presence was always there, behind the scenes but always personal in my life. I love God, and although I'm grounded yet again after such a short break from it, I'm sure He has His reasons... perhaps strengthen me again? I'd be hard pressed to doubt Someone who's all knowing and always has a purpose for people through different methods; trials and tribulations included.
God allowed Satan to give me some more crap to deal with. Satan, lets get something straight alright? God will never forsake me and He's been there guiding me every step I take, no matter what you put in my life. We'll get the victory no problem, how long it takes, thats another thing... Although I'm not worried about it as God knows best for me to get through this. God, I need you more than ever now, guide me in your ways and hide me in your wings whenever I need help. Hallowed be Your name, You who never change. Strengthen me in all ways to live through these times of persecutions from my dad. My weakness shows Your perfect strength, so God, let your strength be perfect in this episode of my life to showcase the glory of Your name. Amen
