If you just want sunny days in your life, you'll get a very dry desert.

Heard this phrase during cellgroup, shared by Marlin just now.

This phrase is so true! If all we want in life is nothing but the sun, optimistic and always bright and sunny, we'll really get a desert! It's impossible to live in an condition like this! It'll be so hot that you wouldn't be even able to sleep at night! IF there's a night.

Many people tend to deceive themselves, living life on a constant high. But it is the lows of the life that moulds you as well. Psalms 23, the very famous passage in the bible, says that I may walk through the valley of death, but I do not fear!

What's a valley? A valley is a very low point in planet earth and psalmist David says valley of death! How low can that be!?

But he chooses to praise God!

Wow.

I really believe that if everyone adopts the mentality of David, praising and trusting in Him even though you're going through trials and tribulations, you'll not just be a better person, you'll become someone whom God can use for His eternal glory!
