Tho' the way we journey may be often
drear/
We shall see the King someday!
On that blessed morning, clouds will disappear/
We shall see the King someday!
We shall see the King someday/
We will shout and sing someday/
Gathered 'round His throne, when He shall call His own/
We shall see the King someday!
We shall see the King someday!
On that blessed morning, clouds will disappear/
We shall see the King someday!
We shall see the King someday/
We will shout and sing someday/
Gathered 'round His throne, when He shall call His own/
We shall see the King someday!
These trials are
temporary; this pain isn't going to last forever. Jesus is coming back, and He
will make all things new.
"He will dwell with them, and they will be His
people, and God Himself will be with them as their God. He will wipe away every
tear from their eyes, and death shall be no more, neither shall there be
mourning, nor pain anymore, for the former things have passed away." Revelation 21:3-4
That's not just some verse. It's not even just
something that will happen eventually. It's a promise from God to you. There
will come a day when all we ever do is bask in the glory and presence of your
Savior, forever. No longer will we know sadness. No longer will we feel pain. Your
joy will be made complete, your purpose fulfilled. You will be content, and at
last you will rest in the embrace of the One who made you.
"But I will hope continually, and praise You yet
more and more." -Psalm 71:14
Your circumstance is but a blink of an eye in the grand
scheme of eternity. I know you don't understand why this is happening to you.
But that's okay, because God is in control. He is sovereign and good, and loves
you more than anything. You can't control your situation any more than you can
control the wind, but you can control your reaction. Choose to glorify God, no
matter what. He is good, always. Cling to His promises. Through suffering, His
presence proves so much sweeter. Experience the unquenchable joy He freely
offers, and let your beautiful light shine. Heaven is coming soon, dear friend.
Just hold on to hope.
"So we do not lose heart. Though our outer self is
wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light,
momentary affliction is preparing us for an eternal weight of glory beyond a
comparison." 2 Corinthians
4:16-17
"And twenty minutes of heaven will make up for
everything." -Joni Eareckson Tada
