Gospel Music Bites Word For The Week: “THE POWER OF SUFFERING 3″ By Pastor Ray Patrick
gospel | Jul 12, 2009 | Comments 0
Yet what we suffer now is nothing compared to the glory he will reveal to us later. For all creation is waiting eagerly for that future day when God will reveal who his children really are (Rom 8:18-19).
Suffering Takes Us To The Edge Of Eternity:
If death is the end of everything, then a life filled with suffering isn’t fair. But if the end of this life brings us to the threshold of eternity, then the most fortunate people in the universe are those who discover, through suffering, that this life is not all we have to live for. Those who find themselves and their eternal God through suffering have not wasted their pain. They have let their poverty, grief, and hunger drive them to the Lord of eternity. They are the ones who will discover to their own unending joy why Jesus said, “Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven” (Matthew 5:1-12; Romans 8:18-19).
Lets Pray
Father, thank you so much for giving me eternity, today I live in that HOPE. Help me to never lose sight of this reality. Amen
