DAILY HOMILIES #persecutions

We all claim to love God, but the true test of our love for God is the quality of our sacrifice. If I say I love God, am I willing to let go of everything else for His sake? Many claim to love God but are only interested in the outcome of their relationship with God. Hence, when circumstances seem to offer nothing in return, they become cold towards God.

Why must we surrender to God instead of dealing with our enemies ourselves? God is a just judge – He alone knows how best to deal with everybody. On the other hand, some of those we consider enemies today may be blessings in disguise. God may have sent them to help us or tell us the truth.
