Bad thinking...

Just recently after listening to a teaching, I have realized, that since we are here and the ministry is insanely hard, I was prone to be whining. But it is supposed to be hard. We are told:

"Whoever does not bear his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple."
Luke 14:27

Specially being in the front line, (literarly), so how in the world was I expecting easy life, palm trees,...etc? Life supposed to be hard. and if my memory doesn't cheat me there is that famous english sayin: "No Pain, No gain."
It should hurt, it should be hard...thats the way we know we are doing the right thing.

and one more thing...Paul did not said take me out of the hardship...He said
help me through the hardship.

We naturally are prone to go with the way of smaller resistence, but then we should not even get out of our beds, should not do a thing...we are called to do the thing, to fight, and never to give up.
So guys if you went through the same or are in the midst of the tough spot. Stop whining, ask GODs help and guidence and keep fighting for HIS glory, for HIS kingdom.
We are called and we need to keep on.

So throw out the bad thinking and keep doing what you are called to.
