How do you deal with triumph and disaster? I'm fairly good at dealing with the minor disasters that come into my life, but triumph is a craftier beast and fills our hearts with joy, when really we should realise that it is fickle and often false. We all prefer triumph but we learn more important lessons from disaster.
We have to remember that the triumphs and disasters of this life are equally unimportant. What we need to concentrate on is the next life. This life is for a fleeting moment, the next will never end. Are you busy coping with triumph and disaster in this life, when you should be preparing for the next life?
God requires perfection from us. This can only be achieved by putting our trust in Jesus and accepting his robe of righteousness. Perhaps my page about Justification by Faith will help you more.
When we lose a loved one it is natural to wonder how they are faring in the next life. I would warn against going to a medium to find out. At worst these people are charlatans after your money, the rest misguided or worse. We are told in the Bible not to try to reach the dead. The best person to call on in this situation is Jesus. That's right, go to the top. He is always available through prayer and doesn't make a charge. All he requires is that you look for him with all your heart. He has the answers to all of life's difficult questions.
