Things will get better


We all go through rough patches in our lives. No one is immune to trouble and there is no life sheltered enough to avoid some kind of dis-ease or dis-comfort. No walls are high enough and no mansion impregnable enough to keep out stress and some level of worry from any human being.

There are also happy moments in life. We wish they could last forever, but the reality is that all good things must come to an end, on this side of eternity. The good thing is, our heavenly joy when we are finally one with the Father will last forever. There shall be no more crying or weeping in the New Jerusalem.

So as we handle today’s issues, we can take comfort in the knowledge that one day it will all be okay. No matter what this life throws at us, we are assured of the everlasting promises of our Father, and we know we will be with Him forever. We know that all things work together for good, for those who love God, who are called according to His purpose. Not everything that happens to us will be good, but everything that happens in our lives is for good. As a friend of mine puts it, ‘if it isn’t good, then it’s not the end.’ Things will get better.
