The gospel reminds us of the importance of putting God as our ultimate priority in life. So that into whatever circumstances we face in life either good or bad, we should never falter in recognizing the need to love and trust God above all things. There may be oppositions and rejections from people or community when we proclaim and live the life of Christ, nonetheless, our fidelity must be firm and lasting. For the bible says "those who persevere in fidelity to God will surely be rewarded." It might not be easy at times to live the ideals of Christ's Gospel since for some it is boring and impractical, but though difficult it still is possible and the noblest of all.
Like the Israelites, though we face difficulties and pains, the Lord's strength will make us persevere and live. We may be slaves of our past hurts and pains or of our present wimps and frailties, yet God's heart is never blind to us. Just like for the Israelites, God will always strengthen us and lead us to a place we've never dreamed of. All we have to do is to make him our hearts' first desire and God will do the rest.
