Looking Forward

The last couple of days have not been kind to those of us who are longing for Spring. Today schools are closed for the second straight day and as the winds pick up it is going to be miserable day outside. On days like this it is important to look forward. Warmer days are coming. Spring is just a few weeks away. We soon will begin to experience better weather day therefore I am willing to endure because I know these days will not last. Spiritually speaking we need to have the same perspective on life. There is more to this life then we see with our natural eyes. You maybe going through a difficult season in your life. You may have had to face some disappointments or unmet expectations. Take heart for better days are coming. As a Christian we are promised an eternal home with our Savior. As a Christian we have the promise that the Lord will never leave us or forsake us. As a Christian we have the power of prayer in an all-powerful God that can change life situations. I do not know how long some seasons of life will continue but I do know that in the end it will be worth it all. Hebrews 11:10 "For he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God." May we have the same perspective as the men and women of faith had in Hebrews 11.
