We come to know that life is God's creation (Romans 8:38-39) while we are in suffering or hardship, and we have time to think of its relevance to this world. We remember joyful times and we regret times when we inconvenienced our husband or wife. We think about what we should do for our children and worry about how they would fare if we should die. In such a situation, Christians begin to see farther away, and ask "What is the Kingdom of God like?" "What do we do in the Kingdom of God?"
How much is God's grace in this world as if we have a chance of re-illuminating our life in God? It means having possibility of re-changing our field of mind into fertile land by tears. At this time we know there are multiple strata in mind each scene we face in the world of life. Given a point of the Kingdom of God, we find no person who can deny his or her insufficient understanding and error in our facts of life. (1 Corinthians 9:27)
Acknowledging God's love who lets us drop tears of repentance on our field of mind (1 Corinthians 8:3), we focus on the God beyond hardship and suffering, i.e., the Cross, the Resurrection, and the Word of Jesus Christ of the Nazareth. (1 Corinthians 1:18) If God gives a love of will on us, then a new life appears for us in this world. "Jesus turned to them and said, "Daughters of Jerusalem, do not weep for me; weep instead for yourselves and for your children."" (Luke 23:28)
If God gives love on us for rejoicing our services as angels, then He soon let us see that the eternal life is given to us in the Kingdom of God. "The devil left him [Jesus] and, behold, angels came and ministered to him." (Matthew 4:11) "When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, he will sit upon his glorious throne." (Matthew 25:31)
How does God want us to overcome hardship and suffering? "All the nations will be assembled before him [the Son of Man]. And he will separate them one from another, as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats. He will place the sheep on his right and the goats on the left. Then the king will say to those on his right, 'Come, you who are blessed by my Father. Inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world.'" (Matthew 25:32-34) Jesus says that God let His love be not appeared in the indomitable persons of life will as the goats in the left symbolize (Matthew 7:21-23), but appeared in the followers after the shepherd as the sheep in the right symbolize in the world of life. (John 10:4-5) God's love beyond hardship and suffering let us acknowledge our errors and makes us life accepting change by dropping tears on our field of mind. "From that time on, Jesus began to preach and say, "Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." (Matthew 4:17)
