In Melbourne, they have this transportation medium called the trams. It look something like this -> https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhVHaAUE4AacEzDChvSW9uUC_VQ1Qy7-GYXlld76DR-eALNrfOyvEOZKCXC5E5YfbmBLy_OIddpOFKwSZmYkFNFMOiIqZ2rufoGgM-XH9GEk71O8Fa0LgKu8WPB720Afv0ouANagw515cY/s400/8-Toorak_ParkSt-01.JPG
Every time I board the tram to venture towards the city back and forth, I will always see this notice "PLEASE HOLD ON, Sudden stops are sometimes necessary." At first it didn't dawn on me that it was something important God was trying to teach me. All I knew was that because the tram moves at a certain speed and sometimes it stops abruptly so it might be rather unstable for the passengers on board. Still I decided to take a picture of it in my camera.

After more than a month I only realized what it meant. Other than the safety caution for the passengers on board, God was also teaching me that sometimes "Sudden stops in life are sometimes necessary". It might be to discipline us, build us, increase our faith in Him and to bring us closer to Him as He bring upgrade to our lives, and He is asking us to "HOLD ON" to Him because He is still in control no matter what!
If there's one thing I have learned in trusting God through 20 years of my life, is that our God is ABLE, our God NEVER FAILS and He honors you when you honor Him! Whatever you are struggling with in life, whatever you are going through in life, every mistakes you have made in your past - It's time to step up in faith and trust God because He loves you! Why does He forgive and loves us? Because, He just does (:
Therefore brothers and sisters, I encourage you to continue to press on in life trusting in God. Whatever plans and goals and dreams you have in life, just commit it to God. And in all things - Pray. Remember: We may throw the dice, but God decides how it falls.

Hebrews 12:5-10 says, "...'My son, do not make light of the Lord's discipline, and do not lose heart when he rebukes you, because the Lord disciplines those he loves, and he punishes everyone he accepts as a son.' Endure hardship as discipline; God is treating you as sons. For what son is not disciplined by his father? If you are not disciplined (and everyone undergoes discipline), then you are illegitimate children and not true sons. Moreover, we have all had human fathers who disciplined us and we respected them for it. How much more should we submit to the Father of our spirits and live! Our fathers discplined us for a little while as they thought best; but God disciplines us for our good, that we may share in his holiness."
Press on gladiators of Christ (:
