Matt 11:28-30 (ESV) Come to me, all who labor & are heavy laden, & I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, & learn from me, for I am gentle & lowly in heart, & you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, & my burden is light. — All life experiences under the wing of the Almighty are easier & lighter than if you are without Him — 2 Cor 4:17 For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison. 1 Peter 5:10 And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has called you to His eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, & establish you. — No matter what the pain, He promises to restore, confirm, strengthen, & establish us for an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison.
