Small Potatoes

"Even though on the outside it often looks like things are falling apart on us, on the inside, where God is making new life, not a day goes by without his unfolding grace. 17 These hard times are small potatoes compared to the coming good times, the lavish celebration prepared for us." (2 Cor. 4: 16b-17, Msg)
Are you gripped today by the small potatoes of seeming hard times? Remember, it just 'looks' like stuff is falling apart. The small stuff lasts only for a fleeting moment. How about focusing instead on the truer, bigger picture? And when compared to His ever-present unfolding grace, coming good times and lavish eternal celebration they are really; 'well', small potatoes!
Walk today in the newness of life and unfolding grace of Christ in you, the hope of Glory! Ron
