John 16:33 ES I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.”

Good morning and praise God. I hope you're having a great day. Have you ever tried reasoning why bad things happens to believers and not to those who do not believe? It is a question that disturbed Habakkuk from the Bible so much. It also happens to many true believers these day. You're not alone in those tribulations. Jesus explained in depth to disciples about the suffering they would have to face. John 16:3 ESV "And they will do these things because they have not known the Father, nor me. " In this point, we see that we face tribulations because in the world we live in, our fellow human do not know God not Jesus Christ. To know here means they have not trusted their lives to God and Savior Jesus Christ. Remember that this is quite personal relationship and not the claim that we may just make with our mouth or any other physical actions. It is quite hidden that only Him knows who are His and them knows His voice. Are you one of these? Does Christ know you? Disciples really suffered to death in this world but they never stopped sharing the Good News and they had peace in doing this because Jesus the prince of peace was with them always to the end. They knew the better gift they had and we're ready to hold to it rather than conforming to patterns of this world. How I pray that God will help you and me to hold on to Jesus Christ to the end . God loves you. Happy Easter. Shalom. Shalom.
