Suffering

Thursday, September 2, 2010 at 2:12am

From: Life's Challenges and Your Opportunities
By: John Hagee

 Some of the greatest men and woman have encountered disabilities and adversities, yet they have overcome these obstacles and used them as a stepping stone to their divine destiny.
         
Cripple a woman and you have Joni Erickson Tada.

Lock a man in prison, and you have a Joseph, a Daniel or the apostle Paul.

Bury him in the snows of Valley Forge, and you have George Washington.

Deafen a genius composer, and you have Ludwig Van Beethoven.

Have them born black in a society filled with racial discrimination and you have Booker T. Washington,

George Washington Carver, and Martin Luther King Jr.

Have him born of parents who survived a Nazi concentration camp, paralyze him from the waist down when he was four, and you have Yitzhak Perlman, the incomparable concert violinist.

Call him a slow learner and write him off as mentally disabled and you have Albert Einstein.

Christ did not come to do away with suffering:
Though He was a Son, yet He learned obedience by the things which he suffered. And having been perfected, He became the author of eternal salvation to all who obey Him.  -  Hebrews 5: 8- 9
        
Tagalog Version: ( Magandang Balita Biblia )
Bagamat siya'y Anak ng Diyos, natutunan niya ang tunay na kahulugan ng pagsunod sa pamamagitna ng pagtitiis. At nang maganap na ito, siya'y naging walang hanggang Tagapagligtas ng lahat ng sumusunod sa kaniya. - Hebreo 5: 8 - 9
