Oppression


Every time we are about to do something good there are always obstacles that come along. We refer to it as oppressions. When all we thought everything was planned, suddenly comes an unexpected complication. Situation such as double bookings of the venue on the day itself even after confirming it many times, last minute cancellation of speaker, and service team not showing up. These are just some few instances were the evil one tries his best for the godly activities not to happen or Gods word not to be proclaimed. The worst thing though is that we who are preparing for something become the “oppression” ourselves.

I consider oppressions as signs of something good coming out from a certain endeavor. After all, why would the evil one wanted it not done? The important thing is never losing sight that it’s a spiritual battle. We can never lower our guard and be complacent. And importantly, let us not be the “oppression” ourselves to our fellow brothers and sisters.
