Its a testing time!

In Luke chapter 20 Jesus is tested by the teachers of the law. They try to trap him so that they can arrest him for breaking God's laws. They didn't believe that he was the Messiah and so they needed a way to get rid of him and discredit him, so at every given moment they tried to trap him.
People can be like that today. They are afraid of the truth and so instead of looking at the change in someone after becoming a Christian they try and discredit them.
Jesus never said being a Christian would be easy, he had to go through all the stuff that we go through and more. We need to remember that Satan doesn't like it when someone is brought into the Kingdom and so we have to rely on God to help us through the testing.
We need to remember that whenever we feel that we are being tested or going through a rough time, that Jesus went through more. We need to remember that when times are hard Jesus is with us and we are never alone. We need to remember that when we are in God's will for our lives that trial and testing will come, as Satan doesn't want us doing God's work. When we are tested we can praise God, as we are only challenged because we are in God's plan.
