Based
on readers’ responses on Gathering the Lambs last post on what true love really
means, I decided to take the next few weeks to delve into some of life’s core
questions.


Personally speaking, out of all of the things we do
in life being tested proves the hardest! So why do we have to be tested? Why do
we need to go through all the trials and tribulation that life brings? The way
the answer plays out every time; we need to come closer to the Father by
following His Son. We chose to come down to earth receive a physical body, and
to progress towards the end goal of becoming more like God. Before this life,
you made the correct decision to come to earth to learn and grow. He wanted so
much for us to become as Him, but we needed to go through a refiner’s fire as
Malachi 3:2 states But who may abide the
day of his coming? and who shall stand when he appeareth? for he is like a
refiner’s fire, and like fullers’ soap:

Jesus Christ through His atonement has allowed us to
be together forever even after death: without any pains, suffering or
affliction. How awesome is this! Matthew 6:33 promises: But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all
these things shall be added unto you. Think about the greater picture, the
eternal perspective of what God has for you. I promise you that your purpose in
life (as well as everyone’s purpose), lies in knowing Jesus Christ and aligning
our wills to His. No matter what circumstances or difficulties we face: Christ
gave us a way out. What will you do to come closer to Him? How will you show Him
your infinite gratitude for His sacrifice? Finding our purpose in life only comes as we strive to live like the Son.
