Try it out my friend.

“Sufferings are not worth it!”

It is so good to know before hand the weight of present sufferings is equivalent to the weight of a feather while the glory yet to be revealed is heavier than the whole world.

Paul also suggests that the comparison is not worth it.
“I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.” Romans 8:18.

Faith makes the promise of this verse a reality for our present life.
The moment that we by faith take the Lord at his word in a childlike manner, we instantly have the incredible relief and have holy boldness that takes over our mortal bodies and we start living supernatural lives in the most natural way.

“Try it out.” “Taste and see the Lord’s grace and goodness.”
To try something one does it with a mental reservation like biting into an apple, that after chewing and not liking it you do not have to swallow but spit it out.

Trying a garment at home after purchasing it at the store whether it fits or not is the way to make final decision with no obligation to keep it but to returned it or exchange for some other garment.

The benefit of trying and tasting is that at the end of the experience you know whether something is worth keeping or worth swallowing and making it a permanent part of you.

Faith is like a filter that tests the purity of the water before swallowing.
The gold dust must resent the heat of fire but after it has been refined to shining beauty, it must not remember the temporary discomforts of the fire.

Trials and tribulations of earth with its innumerable conflicts will soon be forgotten the moment we pass by the angel with flaming sword that will move aside to welcome us in genuine joy. Once this powerful angel moves aside to open the pearly gates for me, he will be the same angel who will shut the door behind me to keep away my persecutors and remove for ever and ever any fear left in me.
Home at last, back to the garden to resume fellowship with Jesus at the cool of the day. Once again we will hang out with Jesus to pray and play.

Because of Jesus and his work on the cross on our behalf there will be no room but for certainty, peace and joy that will untie my tongue in endless praise. I cannot wait!

“And when we have been there ten thousand years, we will have no less days to sing God’s praise than the day we first begun.”

Let it be said without fear of exaggeration that ETERNITY WILL NOT BE LONG ENOUGH TO SING PRAISES TO GOD OUR CREATOR
AND SAVIOR.

Salvation is poorly understood on this side of heaven that our service to God in word and deed and our worship is also equally poor.
Not so in heaven! Not so in heaven! Praise God, not so in heaven!

Jesus is coming soon. Praise God, Jesus is coming soon.
