On Pain and Suffering; A moment of reflection on your Journey to More
Posted by Lee Stanford in Christ's Presence , God , God's Power , Trials on November 17, 2014
Several well known 'sufferers' have provided us valuable God-insights concerning trials and suffering that most everyone has and will experience in this life. Listen to these men of God speak:
PETER: "Beloved, do not be surprised at the fiery trial when it comes upon you to test, as though something strange were happening to you. But rejoice insofar as you share Christ's sufferings, that you may also rejoice and be glad when his glory is revealed. If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory and of God rests upon you. But let none of you suffer as a murderer or a thief or an evildoer or as a meddler. Yet if anyone suffers as a Christian, let him not be ashamed, but let him glorify God in that name." 1 Peter 4:12-19 ESV.

We love our children without reservation, whether good or bad, and in spite of their love being returned. As a “good” parent, we will feel and do imperfectly with our children, what God does perfectly with His kids. We love our children, obedient or rebellious. Ditto God. As good parents we reinforce good behavior with rewards. Ditto God. When our children are rebellious and disobedient, we “justly” punish our rebellious child…because we love them. Ditto God. If a child desires privileges, we give them good things. Ditto God. We never allow them to have anything or do anything that would be HARMFUL to them. Ditto God.

God said, “Let Us make mankind in Our Own Image, in Our Likeness…” (Gen. 1:26).
Our Bible is God’s revelation of Himself, His creation of the earth and mankind, and our future. Countless volumes have been written on the subject of “Theology” (the study of God), but for our discussion on “THE FEAR OF GOD”, we will restrict ourselves to several God-characteristics that may help us better understand WHY we should both FEAR God, as in ‘yirah’ and ‘phobo’, and FEAR God as in reverence/honor, found in ‘kabad’ and ‘timao’ (Part 1):

We live in a solar system called the Milky Way that contains 1 light source called the sun, over 200,000 billion stars, and 9 planets. The Milky Way is a spiral galaxy, and the sun is located about 30,000 light-years from the Milky Way’s nucleus on the Orion arm, and is held together by “gravity” (aka, ‘God’s power’).
I'd count it an honor to share this journey with you.
