for many are called, but few are chosen

Indeed there are many. They once followed Jesus but have gone astray. They left the church misled by their flesh. They left the church disappointed with God. They have forgotten the blessings that God once poured into their lives. They can only recall that God did not take them out of their sufferings. A setback incurred their own foolishness. They chose to become bitter instead of better.

If God doesnt take you out of a difficult situation, he will always help you through it. This is not optimism, this is the truth. And of course with our stains, the truth is always hard to accept. Sometimes we cannot fathom God's motives. But his ways are greater than anyone's. Why doubt him with your own intellect, when you can trust in Him and get back on track! (=
