Sometimes we just feel like giving up on things delegated to us. I was on this bus heading from Queensbay Mall back to my rented room at Burma road. There was a road block due to the Chap Goh Mei festive and the bus driver took another lane that was available and detoured round to get me back to my destination. Now what have I learned? On the bus, the driver told me that if it wasn't for me, he would have return back to the station and report that the jam made it impossible to reach the destination on time therefore will have to canceled the trip. Well, I was thinking..how many times when we are given a task and we faithfully complete it even though it is troublesome and very frustrating? Do we give up or do we press on? Especially task delegated to us from God. Just as James 1:2-4 says:
Jas 1:2 My brothers and sisters, be very happy when you are tested in different ways.
Jas 1:3 You know that such testing of your faith produces endurance.
Jas 1:4 Endure until your testing is over. Then you will be mature and complete, and you won't need anything.
When we are given a task...sometimes is a task on weather we complete it or give up after some failures (objective failures that does not equate total failure) or some frustration or do we endure and be mature?
