On the see-saw with Jesus!!
This channel 8 show gave quite a good analogy. Life is like a see-saw. There'll always be ups and downs in life. Yet if there is no one at the other end, we'll always be down. If nobody comes to lift us up, than we'll remain there! Hmmm...quite right yet not complete...unless.....that someone is Jesus!!!!!
Imperfect people like us will fall once in a while. Not very good to depend on others. Jesus though, might purposely, put His legs there to let us stay on the bottom for a while, if u get what I mean. Legs straight up so that the other person can't get up. But if we wait on Him, He'll lift us up! And through the ups and downs, we know He's there! He's still at the end of the see-saw, even when it seems like He isn't!
At World Issues class today, we looked at genocides and wars. Teacher said some Christians became Atheist after the war, coz they wondered how can a God let that happen? I find it hard to accept too, that we can't have answers all the time. Even for something as atrocious as wars and genocides. I hope if I was one of those who got out, I'll thank God for bringing me through instead of asking why all that happened.
Kelwin's accident and how he responded really encouraged me to look at the good things. SO many times I let the bad stuff play over and over. But surely, good can always come out of our situations?
So if you're tired and weary, been at the bottom of the see-saw for a long time and just wanting to get off, asking for answers and getting none, let me encourage you that in due time, Jesus will lift you up to a new level and a new life and a new love for Him! Let's keep waiting on Him, even when the race seems unending and the storm never calms; we know He's the God of miracles and he can quiet the waves anytime; there must be a reason He dosen't do it just yet! In His time! Remember the see-saw! Jesus is there waiting to lift you up!
