At times we live in scenarios and situations that test us. Explore the following article and find out right now if we are in the presence of a life lesson.

"While they were worshiping the Lord and fasting, the Holy Spirit said, “Set apart for me Barnabas and Saul for the work to which I have called them.” Acts 13:2

The circumstances and causes that surround us have a direct impact on our personal satisfaction, which is why it is important to keep our eyes open and be attentive to the lessons that life presents us.

It is natural that we fully enjoy the goals we have achieved, but we must be careful with harmful feelings of self-sufficiency, selfishness, and vanity that can subtly influence our consciousness, destabilizing our perception of reality.

At these times, it is important to understand and accept that God is the true administrator of everything that is given to us and to maintain a fluid dialogue with Him so as not to put our strength and hopes in the wrong places.

"After they prayed, the place where they were meeting was shaken. And they were all filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke the word of God boldly.” Acts 4:31

Life is full of ups and downs and what seems unalterable to us today can change in a moment. Abundance can generate false feelings of security, but when that structure collapses, we realize that the only enduring thing in our existence is the Mercy of the Almighty.

If our present is auspicious, we must have the gift of gratitude for the blessings received and never forget to help our brothers.

It is fundamental to ask the Lord to guide us to live gratefully and not to fall into selfishness and pride. Financial pressures can take away our peace and tranquility, but they are difficult tests that we must face with faith and commitment to the Lord.

These concerns can generate anguish, uncertainty, and sadness, but it is in these moments when we must take the time to communicate with God and change the focus of our perceptions in order to resurface strengthened in His Glory.

"I thank and praise you, God of my ancestors: You have given me wisdom and power, you have made known to me what we asked of you, you have made known to us the dream of the king.” Daniel 2:23

Sometimes we fall into common spaces of doubt, complaint, and involuntary stagnation that make us attract negative energies and make the wrong decision for these types of moments.

Instead of asking ourselves "Why me?", we must change our focus to "Here I am to fulfill your purpose". Let us remember that we can always rest assured that the Lord protects us and provides us with the necessary strength to move forward.

When we surrender our lives to Christ, we acquire the motivation and strength necessary to overcome all the obstacles that come our way. In Him we can do all things. 

"In the morning, LORD, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly.” Psalms 5:3

Life constantly presents us with lessons and challenges that help us grow and strengthen us.

We must keep our eyes open and be attentive to the signs that life presents to us. Humility, gratitude and faith are essential tools to face the challenges that life presents to us.

When we learn to trust in the Lord, we can be sure that He will provide us with the strength and wisdom necessary to face any situation.
