TODAY’S WORD…

.

What we suffer in this life

can never be compared

to the glory, as yet unrevealed,

which is waiting for us.

.

– Romans 8:18 (JB)

.

REFLECTION…

.

Take heart…

we shall be included in the radiance of the coming glory

which will put in the shadow

all our present sufferings

.

No sooner are we called to our Maker,

that our souls will be freed from evil and unbelief,

from doubts and fears,

and from everything that is distressing.

.

This present time is but a short time

– a little while,

and all sufferings will be at an end;

they can never be compared

to the glory, as yet unrevealed,

which is waiting for us.

.

Christ has promised His saints eternal glory!

QUOTE…

.

"Who is there then,

who will not strive to attain so great a glory,

by making himself God’s friend,

to rejoice immediately with Christ,

to receive the divine rewards

after the pains and sufferings of this life?”

.

– St. Cyprian
