Troubles Don't Last Forever

2 Corinthians 4:17– “For momentary, light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison,”

God's  pruning may not always the kind that we expect to experience as we go through life. During this pruning procedures it doesn't feel endearing or lovable in any way, thus, many have lost faith in the process. On the contrary though, God's pruning is his care and love to us ward for growth, experience and strength in him. 

There have been problems in our past and there will be problems in our future. There are all kinds of problems, many of the problems we encounter today are likely brought on ourselves by responding to adversities in life the wrong way. While some problems are definitely engineered by God himself to make us more like Jesus Christ. 

Please note, however, whether the problems were brought on by ourselves, by others or by God---God will in deed use the same to conform us to the image of Jesus Christ.  If we can only see these issues from God's perspective, then we will most likely respond according to the guideline set out in the scriptures for answers. 

For example: Phillipians. 4:6

Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.

 In fact, as humans,  we tend to want to fix our problems the way we think best but unfortunately, we don't always get it right on our own. And yes, it does get hard at times on this earthly journey but compared to eternity, what we are experiencing now is just a moment in time.

The truth is however, as horrible as we may think our problems and circumstances may be, God will use those things to make us more like his son Jesus Christ., hence our light affliction here, cannot compare to the things he has prepared for those who love, trust and obey him. This glory awaiting us is incomparable to anything earthly.

Prayer:

1. O' God my father, send your divie solution to all my problems in Jesus' name amen.

 2.  Holy ghost bulldozer, clear away ever stubborn problems in my life now in the name of Jesus amen.

Blessings upon you all.
