1 Peter 5:10 “And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.”
It is so easy to look ahead at our future and see the word pain written over it. This may be because it’s all you’ve ever known or because you know it will be a reality for you. Isn’t it funny how long life seems to us but remembering that God describes it as “a little while.” In the span of eternity our suffering will be only a small fraction of our entire life.
Recently I have been trying to live in the present, not constantly looking to the future. Each day is a wonderful gift from God and I must spend my time living in the light of Jesus, not allowing the devil to steal my hope and joy. I want my joy to be so hidden in Jesus that it will never be taken. Life with Jesus is so beautiful and I am so thankful this life is the only time I will experience pain. Jesus is the only one who can take a broken mess and create an amazing masterpiece.
“Let go” is something I’ve been hearing from God recently and while it is hard to let go of what I wanted, once I did everything changed. Experiencing God in a whole new way as my expectations begin to disappear.
Thank you Jesus for my beautiful life<3
