Perspective

NOTE: This is a super old post. Just found it in my drafts.

Wow. Seriously church was wonderful today. The songs of praise was really good and relevant to the sermon which was about faith. Uncles Stephen spoke. 3 parts: Bases of faith, barriers of faith and crisis and faith. Especially coming from him it spoke to me. After all he and his family has been through, I really can see that faith in every circumstance is possible. Just like Hudson Taylor. He had faith. After going to China as a missionary he had to bury 5 out of 10 of his children and his first wife. He died there eventually. But through all of that he didn’t lose his faith in Christ. Like Uncle Stephen pointed out, no servant is greater than his master therefore why should we expect not to go through any suffering let alone the worst suffering we could possibly think of? There was loads more that he talked about. Will post the links to the notes when I get the link. It all has to do with perspective doesn’t it? If we get the right perspective and know how able our God is then problems and trials around us would not seem so big. Why? Cos our God is way bigger than all of our situations put together! I’m not saying not to worry but hey, he can do it, so put it at his feet. Surrender to him!
