Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him. -James 1:12
Steadfast
- very devoted or loyal to the peson (God), belief (in God), or cause (of God)
- not changing; unshakableWhen your situation change, how was your faith and fire?
Bago ka magbago 'pag nagbago ang nararanasan mo, isipin mo muna kung mababago ba nito ang buhay mo. (Before you change yourself for the worst, think first of this will change your life for the better).Ang pagbabago ng iyong sitwasyon ay panawagan ng Diyos upang ikaw 'yong 'di dapat magbago ng pananampalataya at pagmamahal sa Kanya.
(The change of your situation is God's calling for you not to change your faith and love for Him.)
Kung pagbabago lang rin ang panawagan ng Diyos— ito 'yong pagbabago na dapat ikaw ay iyong mas lalago! Mas aapoy! (If the change is God's calling, then.your change should be for your growth! For your fire!)
Ang panahon ng pagsubok ay hindi panahon para manghina o sumuko!
(The season of trials is not the season to be weak!)
Tandaan: Ang pagpapala ay naroon sa mga taong nananatili sa Diyos kahit sa panahong siya'y sinusubok (Remember: The blessings are for those who remains believing in God even if in the midst of trial.)
Your trial will reveal who you are as a believer and will reveal the level of your strength in faith.
Hindi sa panahong umaapaw ka sa saya at pagpapala mababase ang iyong totoong pananampalataya—mababase ito sa panahong walang wala ka na. Wala ka nang maramdaman... Wala ka nang makita... Wala ka nang malapitan at 'di mo na nakikita ang pagkilos ng Diyos sa buhay mo.
(Our faith should 't be based on the season of overflowing joy and blessing. But our faith is proven in the season of your breaking point... Season that you seemed to not see a good things... Season that you cannot see God's hands in your life.)
Will you still believe that there is God in the midst of nowhere?
In the midst of emptiness, how will you believe that God is there?Never forget the promise:
For when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life.Your Glory is Jesus Christ!
And He promised this to those that He loves.He loves you!
Don't give up!
Remain steadfast!
Shalom!
Glory be all to God! :)
