suffering

Yet what we suffer now is nothing compared to the glory he will reveal to us later. Romans 8:18 NLT

This is hard to imagine, and must be taken by faith. There are many that suffer terribly at the hands of their oppressors. A revelation of God's plans and promises, by Him alone suffices.

Our country is suffering terrible losses with continual storms. The waterways are over supplied, the dams over-full. I am safe as I live on a hill, many are not. There are many with nowhere to sleep as there are not enough available houses. Yet, there are empty houses where landlords use them for holiday rentals only. Inequity is everywhere. Yet, God has a plan.

How would our God have us behave? He wants us to care for the lowly, give to the poor, bless those less fortunately, and live satisfied with enough, and not be greedy for gain. If Jesus was ruling this would be a part of the expected norms I am sure. I can allow Him to rule in my heart. Amen!
