The moments of true happiness and love are those that illuminate our path and enrich our lives. In this article, we will explore how to cultivate love and faith in every aspect of our existence.
"But for that very reason I was shown mercy so that in me, the worst of sinners, Christ Jesus might display his immense patience as an example for those who would believe in him and receive eternal life." 1 Timothy 1:16
As sons and daughters of the Creator, it is natural for us to face questions and doubts about our faith. Often, these concerns come from those who have not experienced the presence of the Holy Spirit or know the transformative love of our Lord. However, this should not lead us to respond with anger or resentment.
It is crucial to remember that, in these moments, we may also question our own faith. We ask ourselves: Where is God when we face difficulties? These doubts are common, especially when they come from those who have not felt the power of Jesus Christ in their lives.
"But when you ask, you must believe and not doubt, because the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea, blown and tossed by the wind." James 1:6
In the face of these questions, it is essential to remember that not everyone understands the word of God as it is written in the Bible. As followers of Christ, we have the responsibility to try to open the eyes of others and share our devotion to Jesus.
This gives us the opportunity to share our personal testimony and explain why we trust in the Lord. By doing so, we can help others find the path to eternal life.
"Whoever believes in the Son of God accepts this testimony. Whoever does not believe God has made him out to be a liar, because they have not believed the testimony God has given about his Son." 1 John 5:10
Some people may remain skeptical even after hearing our experiences. However, we should not worry, as God has a plan for everyone, even for those who do not believe in Him at this moment. Over time, their hearts may open to the love of God, allowing us to see them from a more understanding perspective.
Let us remember that Jesus himself was questioned and criticized, but he never lost his humility nor stopped imparting divine justice. Despite the challenges, he continued his mission for the good of humanity, showing us the way to eternal life through his resurrection.
"To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps. 'He committed no sin, and no deceit was found in his mouth.' When they hurled their insults at him, he did not retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats. Instead, he entrusted himself to him who judges justly." 1 Peter 2:21-23
As disciples of Jesus, it is our duty to follow his example, sharing the teachings of faith and bringing the light of God's word to those who have not yet discovered it. We must remember that we are all brothers and sisters in Christ, and our love and patience can be powerful tools to show others the divine grace.
Questions about our faith are opportunities to share our experiences with God and explain why we trust in Him. Let us follow the legacy of Jesus, bringing the light of his word to all those who have not yet discovered it.
