Temporary

This world is temporary.

My body is temporary.

This problem is temporary.

This situation, this job, this life, this temperature, this weather, this thought, this idea, this emotion, this belief, this assumption, this social construct, this pain, this disease is temporary.

These dishes, this car, this home, my favorite tree, this book, this project, my favorite cat, my favorite outfit, this pen, this computer, this country, this universe is temporary.

The world changes minute by minute.

God does not.

God is the only thing that is forever and ever. Alpha and Omega. Beginning and End.

This temporary trouble cannot be compared to the wonders of heaven that await us.

 

“For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory that is to be revealed to us.” – Romans 8:18
