Tomorrow Shall Come

From Psalm 30:4-5:  “Sing praises to the Lord, O you His faithful ones, and give thanks to His holy name.  For His anger is but for a moment; His favor is for a lifetime.  Weeping may linger for the night, but joy comes with the morning.”

Trials of darkness

Arriving today

Feeling faith challenged

Hope slipping away

 

Another mountain

Blocking path of peace

Taking Father’s road

Trust builds, piece by piece

 

Truth comes each sunrise

Breathing with His love

Delivering hope

Joy fed from above

 

Heart’s rainbow brightens

Finding peace from light

Refilling faith’s cup

Mercy taking flight

 

Father’s promised grace

Gathering each crumb

Leading to Jesus

Tomorrow shall come

From Psalm 30:11-12:  “You have turned my mourning into dancing; You have taken off my sackcloth and clothed me with joy, so that my soul may praise You and not be silent.  Lord my God, I will give thanks to You forever.

If you are in the midst of a trial right now, choose to walk by faith.  Choose to “count it all joy.”

From 2 Corinthians 4:17:  “For our slight, momentary affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all measure.”

David Jeremiah (born 1941) is an American pastor and Christian author.

If we will first show respect and compassion while embracing our differences, our world may better find positive solutions, in order to discover common ground.

When we share Christ’s love with our children, from an early age on, they will grow in faith to see more and more of His light.

Oswald Chambers Quote

The dearest friend on earth is a mere shadow compared to Jesus Christ.

From John 15:15:  “I do not call you servants any longer, because the servant does not know what the master is doing, but I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything that I have heard from My Father.”

Oswald Chambers (1874-1917) was a Scottish evangelist and Christian teacher.  Following his death from an illness while in Egypt during World War I, his wife took on the task of transcribing the detailed notes she had written from his lectures and sermons.  Gertrude Hobbs Chambers’ efforts resulted in the publication in 1924 of MY UTMOST FOR HIS HIGHEST.  I frequently read from this devotional, and it has greatly deepened my faith and understanding of God’s Word.

Enthusiasm’s Joy

From Mark 12:29-31:  “Jesus answered, ‘The first is, Hear, O Israel: the Lord our God, the Lord is one; you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’  The second is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’  There is no other commandment greater than these.”

Many of us come to Jesus with enthusiasm, much like Peter.  We are reminded that our faith journey may feel like a marathon, but the eternal destination is worth it all.
