1 Peter 5:10
And the God of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will Himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.
Lets read that again..... And God, of all grace, who called you to His eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.

And that is a promise that comforts me, that gives me the strength to
continue on, to look past the reality and solidly hold onto His promise.
Amidst the hunger, trash, dirt, disparity, broken promises from this
world, hurtful words and glances....God tells us that this will only
last a little while and He, himself, will restore us....
Some of us by death, some, in the future, by His Second Coming....
Hold on. It's coming. It seems as if the darkness will last an eternity....satan's lies will tell us it will....but the only thing that will last an eternity is eternal life found through Christ.
I know so many are suffering now...I'm sorry for your pain. I am. I'm sorry we are in a world that would continue to almost revel in brokenness but we are where we are....and in this brokenness, the only Light that can break through the despair is Christ's. Seek Him full-on.
This blurred picture from the dump this morning shows the many colors of this tapestry set amongst the details.....There is beauty here....there is hope....there is God.
