All is Well

L-R me, my uncle, Frank, and my brother, Mark
1962

"For momentary, light affliction is producing for us an eternal weight of glory, far beyond in comparison, while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen; for the things which are seen are temporal, but the things which are not seen are eternal." (2 Cor. 4:16-18)

           Many people that I love dearly are in extraordinarily difficult circumstances - serious illnesses, death of loved ones, loss of jobs, unfaithful spouses, false criminal charges, rebellious children, and even physical abuse. My heart feels as heavy as a ton of sun-baked bricks just reading my prayer list.
           Yesterday, I prayed and prayed and prayed for them, and the Lord answered, "All is well."

            In our sin-sick, messed up, fallen world, is God's "all is well" really true? YES, if you are in Christ. 
           Jesus said, "In this world, you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer I have overcome the world" (John 16:33). "I will rescue you from every evil deed, and will bring you safely to My heavenly kingdom" (2 Tim. 4:18).

           Be comforted, oh child of the King. The evil that encompasses you is temporary; the perfect, peace filled Kingdom of God to which you belong is eternal. Therefore, look through everlasting lens at your Savior and see that  all is truly well, redeemed by the blood of the Lamb, and far beyond wonderful in comparison with present troubles!
