Product Testing - You're the product!

I can't remember where I first read this, so my apologies for not being able to give proper due credit. During these times of extra stress and tremendous trials in life, I hope you find value in this inspirational message.

Product Testing

Testing allows one to discover how well a product is made when placed under extreme stress. So goes for us humans as well. It is under these stressful times that we discover how well we have been trained to withstand the pressure and make right decisions regardless of outside influences.

In life, we see giving in to pressure in the form of compulsive behavior, withdrawal, anger, abuse, moral failure, and dishonesty, to name just a few manisfestations.

As God entrusts us with more and more responsibility, He brings more and more pressures into our lives to 'test the product,' to make sure that He can give even more responsibility to us. This process helps us see where we are in our maturity and determines our level of future responsibility.

Are you a product that can withstand the product test? Will you perform as the Maker designed no matter what outside pressures come? Know that you cannot perform well unless you are continually in relationship with and obedient to the One who made you.
