2 Corinthians 4:17 New International Version (NIV)
17 For our light and momentary troubles are achieving
for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.
Life can be very tough. Eventually, our body is going to
die. In the process of living, we're going to face some very difficult
circumstances and going to experience some awful pain. But, as bad as life's
hard realities can be, we are headed for an eternal glory beyond our imagining.
Life's difficulties simply can't compare to this glory that awaits us. Our pain
is temporary. The things that cause our pain are temporary. The treatments, the
prescriptions, the therapies, the surgeries, the setbacks are all temporary.
All these things that we have seen and experienced are passing. But our eternal
glory, our indescribable bliss, that wonderful future that we cannot yet see,
is eternal... forever... incorruptible... and reserved for us, God's precious
children!
Thought for today:
Can I push past the temporary problems to see the permanent solutions?
