Proclaim the death of the Lord until he comes again.
May all who seek youexult and be glad in you
And may those who love your salvationsay ever,
“The LORD be glorified."
Proclaim the death of the Lord until he comes again.
Luke 2: 33 – 35 Simeon blessed them and said to Mary his mother, “Behold, this child is destined for the fall and rise of many in Israel, and to be a sign that will be contradicted and you yourself a sword will pierce so that the thoughts of many hearts may be revealed.”
Does this sound like a warning or a promise? Is the promise of a greater good enough to motivate me through pain?
Action: If there is something causing pain or suffering in your life now, try to name three good things that might come of your difficulty. If you can’t come up with anything, talk to a friend. If that doesn’t help surrender your pain to God and trust that he will bring some good from it.
