So much for that game. It's over and done.

I was just talking with Him last night and asking Him some stuff before I went to sleep. He just answered some of them during this morning's Worship Service in our church. The message was about trials and temptations (from the book of James in the Bible).

Trials

He lets trials come our way to draw us closer to Him. People are arrogant (we might not accept this fact, but it is true). We forget about Him when things are going well for us and only remembers Him when we're faced with trials.

What we should do when trials come our way: Ask for wisdom and rejoice.

Temptations

Unlike trials that come from the outside, temptations are found within ourselves. These are our inner demons. It's those desires that we give into but then realize that we find no happiness at the end.

What we should do when temptations arise: Resist.


Maybe there wasn't really new to the message that was shared to us a while ago, but the timing that it was shared was right for me.
