What happens when we write exams? We either pass or fail…and when we pass we are promoted into another class. Ok lets see, how many of us likes examinations? I don’t think any of us likes, right! But after the examinations when the results come and we pass we are so joyful, because we would be going into a new class, getting new books, with new bag etc etc. And that is when we forget about all the pain we took for preparing for the examinations.
Ok now let’s get over the examinations, and see how it relates to our topic. Similar to our examinations are our struggles, we shouldn’t let it suppress us such that we fall under it. Only if we face every struggle boldly we can overcome it. Like how we treat our exams to be a part of our studies, in the same way our struggles are a part of our lives.
Just imagine, if we start running by seeing a dog, it will chase us and might as well end up biting us, but if we remain still it, it will remain still too and ultimately go on its own way and we on our own way. We should not flee from the struggles but face it.
Coming back, we cannot go into next class without writing exams, in the same way if we want to go to another level of success we need to overcome the struggles that come on our way. One thing that needs to be remembered is, the struggles that come our way are only those which we can bear. Like in an examination, a 2nd grade student will not get the question paper of a 4th grade student, he will only get of his own class and subjects, the same way it is with our lives.
The Bible says, ‘No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it’.
Yes the Bible assures us, if and only if we trust in the Lord and remain rooted fast in Him, He would help us overcome the struggles that come our way. Its just how God gives us the wisdom to memorize while preparing for the exams, He will also give us the wisdom and show the way how to come out of our struggles.
Life’s struggles act as vitamins and proteins for our bodies to build up. Yes, they are equally important for our lives, as they help us grow mentally and spiritually. We should not become grumpy when we face struggles as we now know the importance of it, in every situation be happy and relaxed because struggles come and go, as after every dark night there is a definite bright day.
