Heirs with Christ
I think of what we suffer now,
Is just what the Lord will allow;
As a way to keep us in tune,
Preparing what is coming soon.
In frustration trying to cope,
Will build your faith giving you hope;
It should be a time to rejoice,
Even though it is not by choice.
Time makes it feel like moaning gains,
But are merely some growing pains;
Preparing you for the next life,
With coping in the midst of strife.
As for those of us who believe,
We do know what we will receive;
Being set free from the decay,
As this body will start to fray.
Since we know that the Father shares,
As His children then we are heirs;
And as being joint heirs with Christ,
To endure being sacrificed.
For the glory will be revealed,
When everyone has been kneeled;
Realizing all that has been said,
Being in store for them ahead.
