Nothing Compares to the Glory That Will Be Revealed in Us
Romans 8:18
I consider that our present sufferings are not comparable to the glory that will be revealed in us. (Romans 8:18)
Jesus says, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross daily, and follow Me.” (Luke 9:23) This makes following Him difficult. You have to choose God's ways over the ways of the world. The ways of the world are about living for yourself, following your own desires, and doing whatever you want. Following Jesus means dying to your flesh and doing what God wants. Even though this can be hard, it is nothing compared to the glory that will be revealed in you. ~ Jeff M Newman
