LIVE WITH A GLOW! – John 16:33b Devotional by Pastor Cecil A. Thompson

https://DailyEvotional.com/ -- John 16:33b

“In this world you will have to endure tribulation, but be filled with pure joy, for I have overcome the world.”

From time to time I have encountered people that are sour-faced and see only doom and gloom. They see trials and troubles in even the most glorious of times. I have to confess that I usually try to insure that I have something to attend to that will give me an excuse to get away from them and spend time with the Lord.

Now that I have confessed one of my short-comings, let me share that there are other people who I find great delight in spending quality time with. These are people who keep their eyes on the Lord and in His precious Word!

The reality is that we are one or the other of those qualities to those we encounter in our daily activities. It causes me to ask myself the question; “Is my life projecting a growl or a glow?

There is no question about the fact that we will all face adversity in this world. Jesus shares this reality in today’s Scripture. But with the reality that we will all face trials, He will be with us and that is enough to give us a glow!

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
