Easter:
The Reality of God's Will
Hebrews 2:8.
...Yet at present we do not see everything subject to him. 9. But we see Jesus,
who was made a little lower than the angels, now crowned with glory and honor
because he suffered death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for
everyone. 10. In bringing many sons to glory, it was fitting that God, for whom
and through whom everything exists, should make the author of their salvation
perfect through suffering.
For God
so loved the world that He wanted to bring the unrighteous and the
self-righteous, the good and the scum, to glory - so He gave His only Son to
unspeakable suffering...and death. So that whosoever touches Jesus can have
everlasting life.
The secret to discovering the reality of God's Will
seems to be "...see(ing) Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, now
crowned with glory and honor because he suffered death..."
Are you
looking for Jesus in the middle of your troubles? How about in the middle of
your uncertainties? Are you seeing Him in your discouragement, or suffering, or
frustrations? If you will look for Him you will find Him, the Bible promises
that.
If you can see Jesus now in your present circumstances then
someday you will see Him in His glory.

John 3:1. How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be
called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not
know us is that it did not know him. 2. Dear friends, now we are children of
God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when he
appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.
That is the reality of God's Will.
