Stay Free, Look Ahead!

Daily Blessing

May the reality of heaven mean more to you than your temporary circumstances on earth. May the promise of God's provision compel you to live generously and with expectancy. May you see the blessing in your battles, fierce as they are. Are you sturdier because of them? Do you have more compassion for those who suffer because of what you have experienced? Even in hardship, Jesus meets us, refines us, and empowers us to change the world. He loves to reward our faith! May you refuse to get tangled up in your regrets from yesterday, your frustrations today, and your fears about tomorrow. May you instead lift your eyes and look to Jesus. May you live with eternity in mind. Your faith today impacts your eternity tomorrow. Have a blessed, magnificent, eternally-minded day!

Revelation 21:1-4 NLT ~ Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the old heaven and the old earth had disappeared. And the sea was also gone. And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven like a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. I heard a loud shout from the throne, saying, “Look, God’s home is now among his people! He will live with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them. He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever.”
