The word 'Suffering' became a synonym either for me or other parties since the past few weeks.
Last week, I got to watch Manchester United demolishing Chelsea 2-1 in the 2nd leg quarter-final match of UEFA Champions League. So what this got to do with suffering?
Surely a suffering to Chelsea as they lost 3-1 on aggregate to Manchester United. Haha*Evil laugh*
Last Saturday was the most anticipating day for the Sarawakians as they eagerly wait for the result of state election. Unfortunately for me (and the others too), BN won the 2/3 majority. The 'mighty' Chief Minister of Sarawak sworn in (again?) for the _*Insert whatever number you want here*_ time.
'Mighty' forever, eh?
The past few weeks also have been a 'suffering' for me personally with a lot of expected and unexpected things going on. Sigh.
Looks more on retarded than suffer.
But the 'suffering' I remember the most is when Jesus was mocked, insulted, whipped, nailed on the cross and finally died to redeem my sin. This week marks the most important week in the Christian calendar as we enter the Holy Week to remember the Christ's suffering just to save us of our sins.
Despite the suffering that Christ had gone through, we know that there is hope for salvation for He came as a Messiah. Now we know that He is risen and live, we can be sure of our faith because the Bible says
"And if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith." - 1 Corinthians 15:14
