Sleeping Through the Test

We can't always pray our tests and trials away; most are vital to our naturalĀ  and physical progression. Considering we are tested throughout everyday life (i.e. driver's test, school test, fitness test, promotion at work test), we must realize that spiritual growth requires our faith to be challenged and proven also. What may seem to be today's obstacle could very well lead to tomorrow's destiny. The reason we give into temptation isn't because we're mere human's prone to sin. It's too often because we don't live up to our new identities in Christ, understanding we must stay alert (know the Word and heed the Spirit's promtings) and pray continually. See how Peter and disciples missed Jesus' promptings because they kept "sleeping". It's time to get out of sleep mode and WAKE UP! See Matthew 26:39-41. See Matthew 26:39-41.
