But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you. To him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. (1 Peter 5:10-11)

 

What is the most important thing for younger to live a devoted life? It is to live a life of suffering. We can be suffered when we are old one but there is little temptation in that time because most of us will pursue a settled life and go our own way. However, it is clear that younger must endure many temptations of the world and there are many tribulations on their way for Jesus Christ. But, these hardships will make their life more precious.

 

The Bible says ‘after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, stablish, strengthen, settle you.’ In other words, we must go through these times to live an intact life as a Christian. We have to pay attention to the fact that the Bible admonish this specially for younger. In a word, we would live a plentiful life as a Christian if we spend the time of suffering valuable.

 

People in the Bible didn’t waste their time when they are younger. Also, they were never disappointed or frustrated for their time of suffering. They put themselves under God’s charge and waited. Look at Moses in the land of Midian, Joseph in the prison of Egypt, and David in a wilderness. They lived the most exemplary life. Although they spent times of sufferings, they waited the time of the Lord and progressed their way with daring when he called them.

 

Have you ever seen a successful man who has no experience of hardships? Nowadays, many people look up to the rich and the powerful for sure. However, we have to know that the standard of property or power is meaningless for their respect when they leave the world. In that time, people will see how they endure sufferings with wisdom.

 

Like this, the times of sufferings make a life precious. It is a privilege for younger, because it can be a pathetic and even can make them be beyond retrieval when the old are suffered. Younger has power of getting over sufferings and standing again. Younger, enjoy the time of suffering. It will make your life more precious.
