The Lord is proud of those who bear a sorrow bravely. He understands... He's been there.

.

What's important to know is... that sorrow is not the end of your story. That cross you carry... is only temporary.

.

Maybe it's your health or your finances... or maybe someone betrayed you and broke your heart. I don't know... but I do know He always ends in "All Is Well!"

.

It might take weeks or months, or years... but Ultimately There Is Victory. You're going through this to make you better.

.

My friend was praying over someone going through a crushing defeat and he got a beautiful Word to encourage them... "You're Somewhere In The Future, And You Look Much Better Than You Look Right Now!" ... What An Encouraging Truth That Is.

.

So if you're in pain... if all seems lost... remember Jesus... betrayed... beaten... and dieing on that cross. That wasn't the end of His Story... and it's not the end of yours either.

.

He Who Bears The Cross... Will...  Wear The Crown!
