(5-Year Anniv.🌻🙌🏻)*
Jesus went on to say, _“ *In a little while* you will see me no more, and then after *a little while* you will see me, and because i am going to the father?...”_
At this, some of his disciples said to one another, “What does he mean by saying, _*‘In a little while* you will see me no more..."_
Jesus in his ministry on earth was very poetic speaking in parables & this was no exception.As he mostly did, he went on to explain.
It was just a little while and Jesus' death for mankind was just lurking around. Just like any other,it will be a sad and mournful one for the disciples whom he has been with.
One thing they didn't realise was that in *just another little while again*, his death meant that the whole world will rejoice including the disciples themselves. For he will rise again,out of which we have salvation&a joyful life in full measure amidst all the troubles. (All these he likened to a woman giving birth in the Account in v.21)
This morning, the message we take from Jesus words is very simple.
For in just a little while, the troubles&hardships keep pouring in from all angles.
*Your little while* may even take years,it remains unknown when it will end but one thing I know which I declare standing on this word in your life:
*'That in another little while, the same God who took his son all through the troubles will turn your situation all around for Good.*
*Beloved, just like this Childbearing, your pains,discomfort,giving ups,groanings,near deaths are sure to birth great times of joy&jubilation.*
Beloved, always remember that anytime *a little while of troubles shows up, just know that in another little while great times of Joy always awaits you.*
And this is and will be our lives as Christians so far as we remain on earth. This is affirmed in Jesus final words in v.33- *'I told you these things so that in me you will have peace. In this world, you will have trouble. but take heart, I have overcome the world.'*
*SO I SAY:*
*Always know that when there is a Little While of ...Just take heart for in just another Little While,there will be...*
