Glory is the eternal hope of God’s people. Scripture teaches that present trials prepare believers for eternal joy in God’s presence.

Our light affliction… worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory. (2 Corinthians 4:17)

When Christ… shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory. (Colossians 3:4)

Set your affection on things above. (Colossians 3:2)

Glory encourages believers to live with eternity in view and hope in Christ’s return. Fix your heart on eternity and live for God’s glory.

Lord, help me live for the glory that awaits in Your presence. Amen.
