Grace Through Suffering

I Peter 4:12-13 NLT

"Dear friends, don’t be surprised at the fiery trials you are going through, as if something strange were happening to you. 13 Instead, be very glad—because these trials will make you partners with Christ in his suffering, and afterward you will have the wonderful joy of sharing his glory when it is displayed to all the world."

Are you going through some kinds of suffering? Sometimes it helps to sing some songs that the Holy Spirit would give us an uplifting soul toward God. This is one song that usually touched my heart as a reminder to keep our mind on Christ. May the Lord lift your spirit toward Jesus Christ our Lord and be healed in Jesus’ name.

Song: When We See Christ

Chorus:

It will be worth it all when we see Jesus;

Life’s trials will seem so small when we see Christ;

One glimpse of His dear face, all sorrow will erase;

So bravely run the race till we see Christ.

1. Oft times the day seems long, our trials hard to bear;

We’re tempted to complain, To murmur and despair;

But Christ will soon appear, To catch His bride away;

All tears forever over, In God’s eternal day.

(Then Chorus)

2. Sometimes the sky looks dark, with not a ray of light;

We’re tossed and driven on, No human help in sight;

But there is one in heav’n, Who knows our deepest care;

Let Jesus solve your problem, Just go to Him in pray’r.

(Then Chorus)

3. Life’s day will soon be o’er (over), all storms forever past;

We’ll cross the great divide, to glory safe at last;

We’ll share the joys of heav’n, A harp, a home, a crown;

The tempter will be banished, We’ll lay our burden down.

(Then Chorus)
