We are living in the MIDDLE OF WAIT.
We are where we are,
yet not where we are supposed to be.
GOD told us that where we live right now
is not our real home
just as our bodies are so very
TEMPORARY~
which
SIMPLY MEANS
that
even trials & pains & sorrows
are also
TEMPORARY~
Perishable
Fleeting
Momentary~
For our momentary, light distress [this passing trouble] is producing for
us an eternal weight of glory [a fullness] beyond all measure [surpassing all comparisons, a transcendent splendor and an endless blessedness]" (2 Corinthians 4:17).
TEMPORARY means that there is something
PERMANENT~
Unchanging
Everlasting
Eternal~
"Therefore we do not become discouraged [spiritless, disappointed, or afraid].
Though our outer self is [progressively] wasting away,
yet our inner self is being [progressively] renewed day by day" (2 Corinthians 4: 16)
So what do we do?
Oh we keep PRESSING FORWARD~
"So we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are unseen; for the things which are visible are temporal [just brief and fleeting],
but the things which are invisible are everlasting and imperishable" (2 Corinthian 4:18).
With our eyes FIXED on our HAPPILY EVERY AFTER
that is not what is here
but is where we are all going.
GOD said so & JESUS made it so
yet does not leave us alone on our journey
because HE is with us right now
even though we are not yet at our REAL HOME
Because
if HOME is where the heart is & if JESUS is in your heart
then you are always
HOME
so why not be filled with JOY always
as we continue to
PRESS FORWARD IN THE MIDDLE OF WAIT
fixed on our
Unchanging Everlasting Eternal
that is yours & mine & everyone else
who
SIMPLY BELIEVES
that there is
"NO DOUBT ABOUT IT" (listen to the song below)
