Because of where we've all come from and especially now because of where we are going, we, as God's blood-bought people, have a reason to be rejoicing and giving Him the praise that He constantly deserves. Here is the antidote to overcoming the whelms and troubles we have to endure in this life here and what the result of what will be in our shared destinies ahead above in the presence of the Lord in the future!
