Life—a Tragedy or a Triumph? by Dr. D. James Kennedy

Do
not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me.
— John 14:1
Will my life count for something? This question has perplexed the minds of
thinking men and women from time immemorial: What will be the outcome of my life? Men have wondered whether their lives would
end in triumph or tragedy.
Life is a probation; it is also an
education and a school. The tragedy is
that the vast majority of people in America, as well as in other lands, don’t
even know the one central lesson God is trying to teach them in the school
they are attending—the school of life.
The lesson is this: God says
“Trust Me.”
Throughout the Scriptures, from
one end to another, God is teaching people the great lesson of faith—to trust
Him amidst all of the vicissitudes of life.
Every class is the same in every
subject we go through—Trust 101. Some
of us do not go any further, and others have learned to trust Him in
virtually all things.
A life of triumph is a life of
trusting God. Our lives can only
improve if we turn over the reigns to our Savior and allow Him to guide us
and guard us through the challenges.
Then we will be better able to glorify Him in the triumphs.
