18 For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us. 19 For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealing of the sons of God. Rom 8:18–19.

Eagerly waiting for the revealing of the sons of God. This verse gives me so much confidence. Knowing that I will not be perfect but that the fight that I’m going through is worth the battle. It gives me endurance and strength to keep fighting when all else starts to seem hopeless. If I take my eyes off of my situation and put it on God then it starts to make the problem I’m facing seem very small. The more you fill your mind with the Word the more the less important things will start to disappear from your thoughts. In the eyes of eternity most of our problems are really meaningless. God has won the battle and Jesus has given us access to the family so everything I do comes from a place of love and wanting to please the Father.

Just imagine what heaven might be like. How could you not eagerly await for paradise?? To be in the presence of God. To see Jesus in all His glory. For all pain and sadness to be gone. All sickness and death will be forever destroyed. Hopefully past loved ones and saved family members will be there and it will be such a glorious time with God. Thinking about those truths should be able to encourage you through anything you could face here on this planet. Yes things will be tough but it will be worth it! Keep the fight!

12 Fight the good fight of the faith. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called and about which you made the good confession in the presence of many witnesses. 1 Tim 6:12.

APPLICATION:

Keep my mind full of God’s Word! Actually apply God’s Word to my life. Serve the Lord in my mind with my thoughts no matter what the situation is. Keep an eternal view on EVERYTHING! Don’t sweat the small stuff. Stay Humble. Be thankful! Make sure my actions are matching my words! Thank You Lord!!

IN HIS NAME!!
