Nobody can go from no-grace to grace without some meaningful change.
What lies ahead for Christians dedicated to Christ? Where does our help come from?
A very in-depth look at keeping Joy alive amid suffering from The Domain for Truth.

In the New Covenant Jesus has purchased, we are introduced to the true reality of all things.
Through the Spirit of Christ we can draw from this reality so that we may know, in all of the areas that touch our lives—
in our work, ministry, family, society, culture, government, institutions, art, play, research, religion—
the goodness and provision of an all-sufficing, want-erasing, fear-eradicating, peace-loving Shepherd.
Such a precious gift is not for sale, nor is it a chip with which to bargain in our society.
-Dallas Willard
12 Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me.
13 Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead,
14 I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 3:12-14
O come, O come, Immanuel,
Live at the Tower of David
Most kind Jesus, grant me your grace so it might be with me and work with me and remain with me to the end.
Grant me always to desire and want what is most acceptable and pleasing to you. Let your will be mine and let my will always follow yours, and be in perfect accord with it. Let what I want always be what you want. Amen.

[1 Corinthians 1:3-4]
We are comforted because we are heartbroken.
We are comforted because we need a blessing.
We are comforted because God loves us.
We are comforted to comfort others.
While each of the above statements is true, the last is the most crucial one. There is something about comfort that cannot be fully realized until it is shared with someone else.
It is that final step in the healing process of grief, disappointment, hurt, and loss.
Until we share the comfort we have received, until we pass it on to another, our comfort is weak and shallow and limited. Comfort — pass it on!

We Christians will enjoy a never-ending fellowship with God the moment we draw our last earthly breath. What assurance!
That is exactly what Jesus Christ promises those who believe in Him . . . not merely "I hope so" but "I know Him!" In Him we truly have everything we need.

Our only hope is Jesus Christ and His Righteousness.
To pursue God the way He pursued us and brought us to His Son, Jesus Christ! ✝
