Sorrow To Laughter

About the Book

“In all this you will greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief to all kinds of trials. These have come so that your faith-of-greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire-may be probed genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed” (1Peter 1:6-7 NIV). Have you ever found yourself in a tight corner, and you regretted being on earth? Have you ever been swallowed by a serious problem, and you wished you were dead?. Has any close relative or bosom friend ever disappointed you, and you became captive of depression? You might have fallen victim to one of the above situations and life really seemed worthless to you. Brethren, none of these woeful situations is permanent. It may be a test planned by God to promote you in life or show His glory to your enemies. Or, a temptation planned by the devil. “Though suffering and chaos befall us, they can never quench that inner light of providence” (O’Donohue, 2008). Indeed, the struggles we embrace in our daily lives can never erode the glory of God on us. He has promised, and He will never fail.
