Sometimes we tend to over exaggerate our problems, but for God even our most insignificant ones are taken very seriously. Indeed all problems should be brought to God in prayer. This being said, we must learn to put things into perspective.
The fact is everyone has problems, some to a greater degree than others. If we learn however, to think of others rather than focus on ourselves peace will come.
The Gospel today promises that faithful Christians will face problems in the form of persecution. Following Christ means carrying the cross. One should never despair however, because God will always help.
Unfortunately persecution is on the increase. It is more dangerous than ever to be a Christian. Rather than feel sorry for ourselves, we should pray for our brothers and sisters in Christ who are literally dying for Jesus daily.
