Pain Free | July 24th

 “Beloved, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared.”

   1 John 3:2

   When we have been redeemed by God, this is not only a spiritual event, but the Lord has also redeemed our physical being. The promise of the resurrection ensures us of a new, glorious body. One that will be free from pain, sickness, and death.

   This has not yet appeared. For now, our outward appearance continues to weaken as the inner man is renewed. One day, the outward man shall be made new as well and will never experience corruption again, for it will be immortal.

  We are God’s children now, but we experience pain and sickness. Weariness and death. The day is coming when all of these will cease; death itself will end. For all of eternity, we shall enjoy a painless life. There will never be any form of physical suffering again. Let this promise comfort you in your weakness today, while encouraging you to look forward to what is to come.

In Christ Alone.
