I Peter 1:6-9
6 In this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while, if need be, you have been grieved by various trials,
7 that the genuineness of your faith, being much more precious than gold that perishes, though it is tested by fire, may be found to praise, honor, and glory at the revelation of Jesus Christ,
8 whom having not seen you love. Though now you do not see Him, yet believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory,
9 receiving the end of your faith—the salvation of your souls.
Father, Author of time and space, Keeper of all covenants, You make all things beautiful in Your time! Becuase of this we can greatly rejoice, even though now we may be suffering, it is only for a little while! We are being refined as gold in a furnace so that we may be found not lacking when Jesus Christ returns. It is the promise of His glorious return and our victory in Him, that allows us to rejoice with inexpressible joy!
Father refine us, strengthen us, transform us into the image of Your Son, Jesus! May our faces, words and actions reflect the inexpressible joy as we sojourn on this earth until You call us home or until Jesus Christ returns! In Jesus Name, Amen!
