eternal perspective....

A friend of a friend passed away last week, leaving behind her husband and two young sons.
I never met her, but my entire church had been praying for her healing since her cancer had progressed to more intense stages, about 5 months ago.
Keep the family in your prayers.

Funerals always put things in perspective...
I am reminded that suffering is not eternal, it is merely a tool God uses to shape our hearts into more worthy vessels.

But may the God of all grace, who called us to His eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after you have suffered a while, perfect, establish, strengthen, and settle you.
-1 Peter 5:10
.................................................................








...He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. 4 And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.
-Revelation 21:3-4


waiting for that day!
