1 Corinthians 2:9 (NKJV) But as it is written:”eye has not seen, nor ear heard,nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”
There are times when I get so frustrated with the things of this world.
Whether it’s corrupt government, ridiculous taxes, human ignorance, human wickedness, corruption and idolatry in the church or anything else that we could all think of. Some days just seem like the bad outweighs the good by such a huge margin. It makes it truly hard to keep our attitude right and keep our eyes on the good things.
But I always have a knowing deep down inside that none of what we do for God while we’re on this earth is in vain. And this is one of those verses that just drives that point home.
No matter what we have to battle here and no matter how hard it can sometimes seem or how frustrating it can get dealing with human bureaucracy, know-it-all spirits or outright miserable people, nobody can ever take away the promises of God.
And he has promised us that no eye has seen and no ear has heard, and no human mind has ever even imagined the things that God has prepared for those who love Him.
And for me, that’s enough.
Press into Him, people of God. And never stop looking upward or moving forward in His name.
Amen
