In the previous months, I have been learning and being reminded of the will of the Father. It is the refinement of our character, our holiness, the yielding of our lives to Him in whatever circumstance we are in, in worship of Him (Romans 12:1-2). His will for us is to have an eternal life with Him through Jesus (John 3:16).
We are not able to choose our parents, how it was growing but He surely looks at us and our will if we will to choose Him and glorify Him in our lives. (2 Chr 16:9)
In a movie I've seen yesterday, a father had two sons. One son he gave the city kingship, the other to live in the desert (but with powers also). When the son who lived in the desert confronted his father (after so many years) why they put them in such different state, the father said it was all a test. The king was able to prove goodness out of the power he has while the brother has become bitter towards what happened in his life.
Jesus experienced misunderstanding, ingratitude, and rejection. Born in a manger, He lived a simple life. But He was never bitter, discouraged, or overcome. To Him, every obstacle was an opportunity.
