The storms that are raging and crashing all around…will stop. That sickness that has no cure…will be gone. That horrible thing that happened to you that you just can’t seem to forget..will be erased. The losses that you have endured…will be wiped away. The brokenness inside you from unfulfilled promises, shattered dreams, and hearts torn apart…will be made whole. All of the disappointments you have faced.. will be redeemed. All of it wiped away in his presence.
Not to make light of anything you have faced or currently walking through, but Jesus is using those trials. Jesus is transforming you, if you allow him. Through your pain, your heartache, your trials, your losses, everything your dealing with, he is using to form Christ in you. To be made holy in his presence and when he comes for his children and we stand before him, all of this will no longer matter, and we will be left with perfection.
Wholeness.
Beauty.
Only good.
Only Christ.
Set your mind on the things above and not of the things on earth. This is what makes all of those unbearable things bearable and even joyful. Because we know his promise is for good and not harm and he is with us.
We know the things we endure will help us serve a purpose and perseverance to finish the race for this life and life to come. Rejoice in his goodness and his promise. It is his love that brings peace that the world cannot comprehend. We are secure in his everlasting love.
