As a believer, what we need in our life to move to the next level is faith.
Lazarus was a poor man, he was suffering from an illness and the dog was licking his sores from his skin, but on all these challenges he was not still complaining. But he still lived the life of faith, so this makes us reflect on how we see things and how often we stress ourselves about the small things on his head.
When this guy, he had nothing but we are meant to trust God by all means. Brother Eli was talking about why we should not worry about the death that is before us, but we should prepare ourselves with true faith. The Bible also lets us know that we will die once. It is appointed for a man to die once and after the end comes judgement.
There is no reincarnation, we have only one life to live. This is the story that Lazarus has shown that where to start doesn't matter in his life, only when we have faith. At last Lazarus ended up in Abraham's bosom, but the rich man faced the same fate. He was thrown to hell.
God is the author and preacher of our faith, he knows what is good for us. Even in the book of Isaiah 57, we talked about how his plan of taking the righteous early in order to spare them from this world of evil. We have to be reminded that God's plan, even while life might be unfair to us, is the best.
Instead of letting this anxiety to hold us down or depression, we should pray over it and trust God. That he will give us peace to carry on in this world. Death is not the end, remember as believers. After death comes judgement, which will take a step towards eternity and everything. Let's keep the faith alive and keep going.
