there's more in life and there's more in death. but faith is all you need for both.
It’s really easy to get bogged down in the day-to-day, mind-numbing drivel. I’m at a point in my life where I’m just barely making it by every day, week, month. I’m meeting unprecedented expenses on a regular basis, just when I think I get my head above water. I’m trapped in a job I don’t enjoy, but since I’m leaving town in about 10 months, there’s no way I could change jobs, and I definitely can’t quit. A long-distance relationship is taxing, emotionally and physically, and I hate it.
But, there’s an end date to my financial problems, we’ll manage finances together. There’s an end date to my job (THANK GOD!), and I’ll have the luxury of taking a little time off before I can pursue something more in line with my interests. And, there’s an end date to long-distance. I can’t wait. I honestly wish I could fast-forward through the wedding planning and get on with building our life.
The point is, there’s more. You’ll never be stuck in one place forever unless you choose to do it. You have to have faith that your hard work will pay off, that you’re talented enough to achieve your dreams, that God’s plan is the best, whether you know it or not.
And finally, whether this life sucks, is amazing, short, long, exciting or boring, it pales in comparison to what awaits us after we die. Our faith in God, in Jesus Christ, assures us that in death we have a new life free of all pain, suffering, frustration, loneliness. There’s more.
Have faith that there is more.
