I consider the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.

Romans 8:18

Life is hard.

All the time. 

I know there are good days and good seasons, but even then life is hard.

   -Stress

   -Fears

   -Difficult People

   -Injustices

   -Broken relationships

   -Money problems

   -Health Problems

   -Family Problems

   -Medical Bills

   -Job insecurity

   -And 50 other things

We have to face it, suffering is part of life.

In the above verse, the Apostle Paul points us to the answer available for believers. 

The joy that is coming is far greater than the pain we are experiencing. 

I know it is hard to internalize this, but it is true. 

This is what gives us hope.

Our hope is in the future. 

In this life we need to expect suffering, but it will not always be. 

Take heart, He will heal it all.

Grace and peace,

Pastor Harvey
