Endurance

There was a time when fighting for what you believe is worth it, but there are also times wherein you must choose your own battles. When you are nearing your golden age, you are expected to become wiser. You let petty things slide and become more considerate and forgiving. You no longer spent your precious energy on trivial matters.

There are stories in the Bible that narrates events wherein GOD seems to dismiss the sins of his chosen people (in the eyes of the unlearned person, it may look that way). But what if, he had big reasons why he seemed to disregard their sins? Have you ever been in a situation wherein you made a very big mistake, and you were thinking that you no longer deserved pardoning but instead a punishment? You wallowed in shame and thought you don’t deserve a second chance?

Our Parents, Siblings, a few trusted people including friends might understand us and accept us. But the Lord is the only Eternal Being who knows our dark sides, forgave our sins and endured with us while we’re paying the consequences of our past mistakes and still hoped that we will be transformed into his glory in the future. Only GOD deserves the best that we can offer. After all, he gave the very best we can receive – salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. Nothing more, nothing less.
