We need a heavenly vision so that we can be sustained in this life.
There is no better place than to be lowly, poor, and needy for God. We never cling to Him as tightly as when we are struggling, troubled, needy and afflicted. God in His love allows times of difficulty so that we cling to Him and never let go, to ultimately do us good in the end. Have an “In the End” perspective, and know that God will do nothing but good to those who love Him.
Father, give a glimpse of the glories to come so that we can endure the troubles of this life.
Hebrews 11:16 NKJV
[16] But now they desire a better, that is, a heavenly country. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for He has prepared a city for them.
