As Good As It Gets

"Is this as good as it gets? Many people assume that it is! Many people think their deepest joy and most profound happiness happens somewhere between the delivery room and the funeral home. Is that as good as it gets? For the Christian, this world is as bad as it gets. Set your heart on this hope from the 2 Corinthians:

"Our physical body is becoming older and weaker, but our spirit inside

us is made new every day. We have small troubles for awhile now,

but they are helping us to gain an eternal glory that is much greater than our troubles.

We set our eyes not on what we see but on what we cannot see.

What we see will last only a short time,

but what we cannot see will last forever."

(2 Corinthians 4:16 - 18)

"Because God's promises are unbreakable, our hope is unshakable!"
