Are you being tested?

Many theories look good until they are 𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐝.

Many software applications look good until they are 𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐝.

Many people look good until they are 𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐝.

Any piece of rope will hold when there is no weight on it, but we also need to know that we can count on it, when the heavy weight it was designed to carry, actually holds.

We have to test everything that we produce because things can go wrong.

And like things, we too are frequently tested in all kinds of ways in life.

We are living in times of great testing. No one is exempt from life’s trials.

I do not believe that it was intended that our earthly experience would be a smooth and easy one.

It is my experience that tests always come.

Accidents, illness, old age, the loss of a loved one, death, unhappiness, depression, tragedies, financial loss etc.

How do you see you life now?

Sometimes it may seem that life will bring some unexpected challenges – almost daily at times.

Tests are designed to show our strengths and our weaknesses.

We cannot choose most of the tests we face in life, we can however choose how we’re going to face them.

Facing up to every challenge, every test, is a chance for you to become the person you are meant to be.

These moments truly define us and prove what we are really made of.

Personally, I know that when you face the tests of life, when you learn from them and grow with them, you can become that person you are meant to be.

Always remember to put things into perspective, tests always eventually pass.

I am grateful for well proven guiding principles of faith, obedience, work, morality, honesty, persistency, integrity that always prove themselves when they are tested – when they are required to perform.

Turning to a family member, a friend, a work colleague or to your faith can help.

Who do you turn to or what principles do you follow, to help you through your tests in life?
