“For this slight momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison.” 2 Corinthians 4:17
 
Suffering creates glory. Yet so often we are unhappy in our suffering. Not a glimmer of God’s love, comfort and glory penetrates our hearts. But our heavenly Father, who is love, knows what will comfort us. He urges us not to bear our cross like a slave who is forced to, but out of love for Jesus. When we bear it trusting in the Father’s love and committed to His will, then our cross will begin to shine. We will become happy and we, too, will shine in His love.

The Father in His love has planned an abundant reward for all His children’s tears. He Himself wants to wipe away every tear from our eyes. Like the father of the prodigal, He wants to embrace us and shower us with love. After the troubles of this life He wants to give us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison. He will repay us without end for our sufferings. Full of joy, He will show us the harvest of our days on earth. As we keep our thoughts focused on such a glorious outcome, our greatest suffering will seem small to us.
(Revelation 21:4, 2 Corinthians 4:17)

When suffering is about to get you down, remember that you are not at the mercy of blind fate. Remember, rather, that your suffering comes from the hand of your heavenly Father. Begin to praise God the Father for sending you suffering that will achieve eternal glory. Suffering is meant to make us like Christ and to help us reap a great harvest. So say to the Father, ‘I’ll suffer gladly. This will prepare me to dwell in glory for ever.’ Then blessing and comfort will flow into your heart.

You keep thinking, ‘Why does God, who says that He is a Father of love, lay this cross upon me?’ Do not keep your eyes on yourself but on Jesus, who entered glory through the cross. Your cross is meant to be a ship carrying you to the City of God, where you want to go. To this day there is no other way to glory. It is the cross and suffering that prepare eternal blessedness for us, according to Scripture. So look forward with joy to the heavenly glory. In faith live even now as though already having attained the heavenly goal. Then the things that are difficult to bear will become easy. (Acts 14:22; 2Timothy 2:12)
