You know how many people say 'life is like a roller coaster'? A few weeks ago, the pastor at my church shared a message about that. What he basically said was that if you think about it, roller coaster's always end at the bottom, where they start and just repeat itself. I know, I know, it's only logical that people get off safely on land, but bare with me.
And that's what the world and Satan want to do to you - build you, feed you with things that give you a high and then proceed to pulling you all the way back down in an instant. I mean, we all have downs in life at times. But the thing about roller coasters is it's sort of like the law of gravity - what goes up, must come down. So basically, if you trust and hope in worldly things, they're going to bring you down sooner or later.
God doesn't want that though. He wants to build us and feed us so that we'll continue to ascend. Sure, it'll be a bumpy ride, no doubt about that. No one said it would be easy, just that it'll be worth it. But if you secure your hope and trust in Him and obey, you will go up.
I get that when most people say their life is like a roller coaster, they just mean the constant up and down part. But just think of it this way, in a different perspective.
P.S. I also didn't feel like doing my Math work just yet. And so a post was formed :D Hehe, peace!
