In hindsight, I understand, that it is all part of the process. God will get the Glory one way or the other and His way has become my way, to ensure that it happens the way that He planned it to be so. My stamp of approval is the last of the last things that He would ever need. However, my participation has volunteered voluntarily, to serve what is bigger than me.
In order for Redemption and Salvation to exist, the death of Christ was imminent. But Glory be to God, we now know that it was not permanent. He raised that Temple from the same grave that did not deserve to hold Him, and He Lives in and through us, that Believe.
The trials and tribulations are not the time to express your disbelief that it is happening TO you. No, it is the time to be Grateful that it is happening THROUGH you! The Victory was already won on that third day and of the rising of the Son!
It is a Blessing to be used as a demonstrative example to the Greatness that has always been, always will and is to be. People need to see the "Fullness of the Lord" in order to understand that He is REAL! People need to see your "Faith on Trial" to know that the prosecution by way of your persecution is only working to the good of your defense, by a Judge that sits high and looks low.
The "Arraignment of My Belief" has released me on my own "Holy Spirit Recognizance," in the face of the requestor to remand. But, I stand on this Solid Foundation of Christ with Faith as my cologne, smelling like the goodness of the Lord that has saturated me in the Glory that is Him.
The death of Christ before the birth of our lives, "Had To Happen."
The adamant allocution to our biased persecution prior to complete exoneration, "Had To Happen."
If they did it to King Jesus, it will most certainly be done unto you. When you wear that Cross and walk in His Image, you will be penalized way behind the line of scrimmage. However, the time remaining to Christ is "but a breath," and the "Peace that surpasses all Understanding" will know that God will get the Ultimate Glory in the Testimony that is to be your story, and you will then know, that "It Had To Happen."
God, Love, And Smile Always!
