JOHN 16:28-33; REVELATION 21:4
A lifelong fan of a football club experienced disappointment due to the team’s lack of championship appearances. Despite this, the team has a loyal fan base, often referring to their home stadium as the “Factory of Sadness.”
Our shattered world might operate as a “factory of sadness” as well. Whether brought on by our own decisions or events beyond our control, there appears to be an infinite supply of heartbreak and disappointment.
Followers of Christ have hope for both the future and today. Jesus promised peace in Him, overcoming the world, and overcoming struggles. He counters them with promises of peace, joy, and ultimate victory, ensuring a better future for all.
Christ offers us a great peace that is more than sufficient to help us deal with anything life throws at us.
🙏 “When peace, like a river, attendeth my way, when sorrows like sea billows roll; whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to say, It is well, it is well, with my soul.”
Horatio G. Spafford
