Romans 8:18 (NIV)
18 I consider that our present sufferings are not worth
comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.
Paul knew hardship: take a look at the list of just some of
the difficult challenges he had to face in 2 Corinthians 11:22-33. His
"present sufferings" make most of our difficulties seem tame by
comparison. However, Paul could say confidently that the glory he would have
with Christ (cf. Col. 3:1-4) would be so incredible, with blessings so
fantastic, that his hardships are minor in comparison. That glory will also be
ours! Now isn't that fantastic news.
Thought for today:
Do I spend too much of my times focusing on my problems?
