Hope of problem free eternity

I was blessed by Walt’s message about God having a message for us every day . In the past few days I have been more mindful of turning to the Lord in the silence of my heart and asking Him what message He has for me

Today I picked up my Jesus Calling devotional and it happened to be on January 26 – the words exploded off the page

Link your hope not to problem solving in the life but to the promise of an eternity of problem free life in heaven

I am a fixer – always trying to do things better and find a better solution

I spend my days thinking about how to encounter less problems – I hope for less discipline issues in child rearing, a less noisy house, and for a time when we don’t live pay check to pay check

My heart is in search of ease – an easier life and yet I am not promised that.

Its my hope for heaven – what assurance to know there will be no more problems. I can stop trying to live problem free now and rejoice that I have a problem free eternity.

These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will^[a] have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” John 16:33
