do not long for the absence of problems in your life. that is an unrealistic goal, since in this world you will have trouble. you have an eternity of problem-free living reserved for you in heaven, rejoice in that inheritance, which no one can take away from you, but do not seek your heaven on earth.
begin each day anticipating problems, asking Him to equip you for whatever difficulties you will encounter. the best equipping is His living presence. His hand never lets go of yours. take a lighthearted view of trouble, seeing it as a challenge that you both can handle together. remember that He is on your side, and He has already overcome this world.
