Life is great, but Heaven is better.

So often we are the extreme. At one moment life is amazing and couldn’t get better, but then the next we are depressed and hating every second. We get so caught up in this world that we don’t see past it to the future… to God. He doesn’t change. Our life, our priorities, our situations may, but he remains faithful. He loves us more then we could ever know and wants to take care of us. Our petty situations in life are nothing in the grand scheme of things.
Look for the lesson in everything. What God is putting you through now is a gift, a lesson, for future use. Be a good student and soak it up. 1 Corinthians 10:12-13 says, ‘So, if you think you are standing firm, be careful that you don’t fall! No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it.’

Remember: the best is yet to come. God has great things in store for His chosen people. We just have to choose to look past this world of sin that we live in to what His will is for our lives, because most of the time we are missing the big picture! Fame on earth and fame in Heaven are too extremely different things. Life can be amazing, but we must always remember that Heaven is so much better.
