For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. — Romans 8:18

“Life is hard. Anyone who tells you otherwise is trying to sell you something.” This line from the movie “Princess Bride” is a powerful example of how true it is. But it doesn’t always hold true! People who follow Jesus will have much better times ahead of them than we can even begin to imagine. “O that will be glory for me… when by Thy grace I shall look on His face, that will be glory,” goes the old song.

Prayer

Please, All-Powerful God, give me the courage and vision to see from far away the ultimate grace that you have waiting for me and to truly believe that you are working to bring me home to you and to that glory. In Jesus’ precious name I pray. Amen.
