The Unfair Times in Life Matthew 11:1-11 There are times when we all experience doubts and fears. There are times when we wonder about our salvation and about our faith. During those times of doubt and fear, we ask ourselves some pretty deep questions. “Am I really saved? Am I really secure? What if I made a mistake? What if Jesus isn’t really the way to Heaven? You see, like John, you never know what Heaven has planned for your life. God may be about to use you in a powerful, wonderful way. But, before He can use you for that purpose, Are you willing to trust Him anyway? In fact, you might live your entire life and still never know what the Lord is doing in your life. Are you willing to trust Him anyway? While you are in that prison of doubt and perplexity, you may wonder what the Lord is doing in your life. Heaven may not tell; but if the Lord sees fit to allow you to go into that prison, He does so because He sees in your character the kind of metal that can endure the furnace of doubt and be purified. Your past may be filled with great blessings and achievements for Christ, but you can foul that up today. You cannot live in the past for that time is dead and used up. If you will take one day at a time to be surrendered to Christ, you will finish your life in victory and faithfulness. You will turn out to be a Christian that honors God. Are you trusting the Lord with your life and yielded to His care? If you are, you will turn out to be a blessing to others and a Christian that honors God with your life. Let me ask again, “What will you turn out to be?” God help us all to be faithful to the Lord until He returns, or we go home to glory.
