Faith

One day, You will be able to Throw your Arms Around Jesus

Hold on tight. Your life here on earth may appear so challenging. But one day, when you will be in heaven, you will be able to throw your arms around Jesus and hug Him tight. That day is going to be victorious. You will finally spend eternity with Him. But until that day comes, please keep His promises in your heart and never give up. Make that wonderful moment your motivation to keep going even if there’s pain. What you experience here on earth is temporary. So make use of your time building the things that will take you to eternity. And that’s your relationship with God. Do not just live according to what this world can give you. Your Heavenly Father prepared a wonderful place where you can rest and experience true joy.

Do not lose hope. Maybe you feel like giving up in this season because you can longer see the good things around you. The problems you are carrying are heavy, and you think you can’t make it. But remember that heaven exists, so keep your faith. Do not focus on the obstacle in front of you. Instead, look at how awesome, and great God is. Receive the love that Jesus poured out on the cross, and never forget that you are meant to defeat the principalities of this world. Strengthen your relationship with your Savior and keep Him at the center of your heart. He is the One who can lead you to the place where there are no tears and pain.

The trials that you experience here on earth are nothing compared to the great things that God prepared for you in heaven. So do not dwell on the difficulties, instead look beyond what your eyes can’t see. Imagine yourself enjoying the presence of God in a place where you no longer be tempted to commit sins. In a place where everything is perfect.

“5 minutes inside eternity and we will wish that we had sacrificed more, wept more, loved more, grieved more, prayed more, sweated more and given more.”

Leonard Ravenhill

Your life is going to be worth fighting for as long as you offer everything for the glory of God. No one can contain the great things that God prepared for you. So please keep your faith and choose to grow in His presence. Yes, it’s not that easy to choose to stay with Him, especially in the midst of hardships, but you will make it. He will give you the strength that you need.
