Times of Distress and Sorrow

Many things and experience in life pull us down into sorrow and frustion. Life is no spiritual picnic, full of painful things, trails, test, and  satisfaction. How we react when  we encounter adversity largely  affect our happiness and success in life. Ever one faces hard things and test. So test or different then others. I remember a line form the play "fiddler on the roof". When the man character wish he could be rich, he says to God "if being rich is a sick, may be  strict in with it and may i never recover." You may see people that go thought with no problems, remembers the rain falls on us all. All are tested by God and God's are fair in the end.

When you face adversity the first thing you need to remember is the purpose of life. this life is day of probation or testing. So God see if we will be faithful to him at all times.  If life was prefect with on problem, wouldn't it be easy to stay true to God, but what would it be worth. Their wouldn't be any satisfaction or reward. There in opposition in all things. For every good their is a bad. So for us to truly understand and comprehend good of life we must taste and little of the bad. So its OK if some bad stuff happiness its part of life. The test is how we handle and overcome it. So instead of asking why this is happening. Ponder and pray "what am i to learn?, how can apply it to my life?, how would i Jesus react if he was in my place? What is the good that can and will come of this?

Christ first and foremost teaching was faith. Faith in Christ is the key be successfully in life and being happy. Christ suffered the pain, sickness, and satisfaction of all men. He overcome the world and has the heal power. No matter or distress or sorrow the Savior atonement has the power to heal you, but you must have faith in him. He will aid, uplift, guide,  and comfort you in your times of adversity.

With faith and Trust in God and Jesus Christ every thing leaves us as blessing. The wind that would push us down, will fill your sails and push you toward Heaven.
