Day 10 - 2 Corinthians 4:17: "For momentary, light affliction is producing for us more an eternal weight of glory far beyond all comparison." Sometimes it feels like we are being crushed by the trouble of this world. But the "affliction" that we face is temporary and light in comparison to what we have to look forward to in heaven because of Christ's work for us! Thanks be to God!

Day 7 - 2 Timothy 2:19: "Nevertheless the solid foundation of God stands, having this seal: "The Lord knows those who are His," and, "Let everyone who names the name of Christ depart from iniquity."" The Lord knows His own, and He cares for them, whatever they may face in this life. As His own, we are called to be different from the world.
