Today as I worked on the houses I once again was thinking how I could seriously beat the crap out of some people right now. Anyway, one thought that has been on my mind lately is the scripture that says "To whom much is given, much is required."
I wonder if the opposite is also true. To whom less is given, less is required. Either way you understand it, it just doesn't seem fair. It doesn't seem fair that if you are not as blessed you don't need to do much. It also doesn't seem fair to say that if you are not as blessed as others that Heavenly Father just doesn't expect too much from you.
I don't know, but of this I'm certain, we as a family, have been given much. Consequently, much is required of us. I keep having to remind myself that these two houses Mike's old partner left us to deal with, is a trial and that there's no blessing until the trial of our faith. It's been a while since I've felt that "but when is it going to end?" or "Are we there yet?" feeling, so it's time to go through it again. In any case, I guess what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right?
I sure hope so.
Oi reh...eu concordo com vc,realmente aprendemos que a quem muito eh dado,muito se eh exigido...espero que no final deh tudo certo sim, com certeza o Pai Celestial estara abencoando vcs e com certeza no final vai ficar tudo bem, sempre tem o sacrificio, mas depois sempre veem as bencaos.
ReplyDeleteBoa sorte Reh :)
Ja faz alguns meses que eu e Andre estamos passando por tribulacoes tambem. Parece que tudo acontece ao mesmo tempo... Saude, mudanca, busines nessa economia louca... Ainda nao sei if we are there yet!
ReplyDeleteMas parece que consigo enxergar um pouco da luz no final do tunel! Realmente fe e o que precisamos ter nesses momentos! O Senhor nos da bencaos. Mas tambem chega a hora onde somos testados para sermos provados da nossa fe.
Aguenta firme que tudo vai ficar bem no final! Com certeza Ele esta cuidando das nossas familias e tudo que nos acontecer e para o nosso bem e crescimento! Torco para que tudo saia da maneira que vc tem planejado! Um abraco! A sua familia e linda!
