Life is hard. Unexpected things happen that cannot be prepared for, but God still knows best and is completely in control. My work load has just increased in a major way in one day. Jonathans outlook is positive and encouraging "its job security", but that doesn't mean that i will have any less stress. Or heres another example: a good friend of mine was 5 months pregnant and had a miscarriage. Once again life just gets hard sometimes. Bad things happen to good people and good things happen to bad people...this is just a major sign that karma is an absolute joke.
Even though hard things happen and life is just something that you can't know how to do perfectly, we still can be firm in christ and know that no matter where life takes us, no matter what good things happen or what bad things happen if we are trusting in Christ we can't go wrong. Jesus can bear our burdens (Matthew 11:28) and we wont be given what we can't handle (1 Corinthians 10:13 -i know it says temptations moreso regarding adultry, but can't it also be a temptation to let too much stress turn into sins of worry and anxiety or a persons problems become consuming and the center of their focus rather than christ?) This "life" process is Gods glorious way of sanctifying us (once we are His), so enjoy it.
Grace and Peace
