Our Treasure Reality Hope

Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.
James 4:14

Thoughts:
In this life we have been given a peek into the eternal and everlasting world; a glimmer of what is to come. Our futures are far greater than our minds are able to comprehend. We have hope and assurance through Christ. Embracing the eternal hope does not mean that we should close ourselves off from the world we are in, but instead embrace each moment we are here and share the hope that is within our hearts. Living each day focused on Christ changes our perspective, and regardless of how things appear we still have that hope. This lifetime that seems so mammoth to us, in reality is but a passing mist; a short amount of time in comparison with the rest of forever. God is our reality, and more real than what we can see, touch, and feel. Each new day can be embraced free of worry, and of fear; overflowing with assurance for our future. Our treasure is buried deep within our souls, it cannot be shaken or removed.

Prayer:
As we begin this new day, we thank You for the hope and assurance we have for the future. You are our treasure, our reality, our hope. We thank You for this life, and all the blessings surrounding it, but this world is not our final destination. We long for the day we will see You face to face. Whatever we may face today, we know we are secure in Your capable hands. Amen.
