Why do I need help?

 
Romans 8:35
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? 
Romans 8:37
37  No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.

Does an easy life mean we are loved more? Explain.
No, I almost think it is easier to feel loved the more tribulations you have. Not that you are loved more because of it, but you need His help more, and you see His hand helping you more clearly.


Have you wondered if God has forgotten you in the pain you face right now? Does this passage give you perspective?
 
It does give me perspective, 'cause I know He is always there with me. But it is very comforting to be reminded of it everyday. And it perhaps makes it easier to lay all things upon Him. To let Him help me through the rough times. Sometimes you do wonder, but He has never forgotten you. It is more the case that you yourself refuse His help or turn away from it. Because you think you can do it on your own. And by writing this at this moment, it makes me realize that I am no different. I want to prove that I can do it myself. And in a lot of cases I can do it myself. But it doesn't mean that I have to or that it's easier. The best is to be helped, to know that I am not alone it anything. He only wants to take me through the best way. I don't have to go at it alone, not knowing which is the best way, the less painfull way. If I do go at it alone, I might very well end up on the more difficult route...


Till next time, 
God Bless
