WHAT LANGUAGE GOD IS SPEAKING TO YOU NOW?
...but REJOICE to the extend that you partake of Christ's sufferings, that when His glory is revealed, you may also be GLAD with exceeding joy. 1Peter 4:13. My friend, I don't think apostle intend to grin-and-bear-it or act -tough-like nothing-happened attitude here. No trace of these attitude can be found in Christ's respond to suffering or in Paul's life. ..Nor is there any masochistic hint of enjoying the pain. Christians should not act happy about tragedy and pain when they feel like crying. Christianity is not phony brother. The spot light should be on the end result. He first needs our commitment of total trust in Him, and the process of giving Him the commitment can be described as Rejoicing. It is imperative to understand the language God speaks to us in every seasons of our life. There is no language God will not speak. Which leads us to a good question. What language He is speaking to us now? I am not talking about an idiom or dialect but to the day-to-day drama of our life. Is it "language of abundance"? Is your tummy full or all bills paid or bought a luxury car or built a house of your dream? Don't be proud of what you have and miss what you need to hear from Him. How about language of affliction and suffering? We don't want to hear that language, do we? But you and I both know how clearly God speaks to us in Hospitals, sick beds, when people falsely accuses us, rejects us, abandoned us, uncertainties, tossing and turning in the nights- sleepless nights, right? Hey, hey, God speaks all languages--including yours...Y'ALL HEAR ME? The question is: What language is God speaking to you now? What..What..what LANGUAGE?
