Experiencing God’s wonderous love will change your life, transforming it. Protecting us under His wing, no one will doubt the Lord’s presence in our lives as He carries us through the storms of life and helps us persevere. Jesus never said we wouldn’t have struggles in this life; He promised we would, but to take heart, He had overcome them (John 16:33). And our Creator promised never to leave nor forsake us when under siege from the enemy. We have the victory, but we still have to weather the storm.
“Well, I guess it’s a good way to go. I never knew him to be sick.”
At a recent women’s Bible study, one of the ladies shared the loss of a friend the day before. The elderly gentleman, unknown to me, passed away peacefully, sitting in his backyard while his wife napped inside. Now, in the arms of the Savior, he basks in the wondrous love of the Lord, his struggles gone. Our reward awaits us in heaven and gives us the hope to persevere through today’s heartaches.
Whatever issues you may face today, focus your thoughts on the Savior. Reflect on the ways He has loved you in the past, helping you overcome challenges you may have long forgotten. Keeping the Son in your eyes will help you maintain perspective and remind you that today’s troubles will pass and glory awaits you.
