THE BEST

JEREMIAH 32:42 (MSG)
Yes, this is GOD’s Message: ‘I will certainly bring this huge catastrophe on this people, but I will also usher in a wonderful life of prosperity. I promise.

1 JOHN 3:2 (MSG)
But friends, that’s exactly who we are: children of God. And that’s only the beginning. Who knows how we’ll end up! What we know is that when Christ is openly revealed, we’ll see him—and in seeing him, become like him.

SUMMARY SENTENCE
As we trust Christ we realize that the best is yet to come.

PRAYER
Gracious God, thank you for welcoming me into your family as one of your children. I confess, though, that even from such a privileged position I'm inclined to allow the crisis of the day to capture all my attention -- indeed, my imagination. Help me to live as a trusting child in your care. I know that the best is yet to come in spite of the current troubles. Amen.
