Good morning. Grace and peace be unto you!
As I was reading this scripture popped out to me.
Romans 18:17 And we know we are going to get what's coming to us - an unbelievable inheritance! We go through exactly what Christ goes through. If we go through the hard times with him, then we're certainly going to go through the good times with him! 18 That's why I don't think there's any comparison between the present hard times and the coming good times.
I was just thinking about a dear friend who's child was taken from her very tragically by death. She has spent an agonizing week processing the fact that he will never walk through the door again.
Then I thought what it must of been like for Jesus' mother to watch her son being beaten, spat on and humiliated. Even though he told her and the disciples the outcome her flesh felt her child. She longed to do something to ease the pain of her baby. Yet nothing could be done.
The scripture reminds that even though times are horrible right now there is a better day ahead. A chance to wipe all tears from our eyes and rejoice. It is all in God's timing.
It is dark but the sun will shine again.
