The love of God is greater than anyone can know. But someday when we leave this earth and are brought into His presence we will be totally transformed and renewed by being in His loving presence.

Rev 21:4 KJ
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
While here on earth the forces of darkness will continually try to get our eyes off Christ and unto self. When I was young man working developing software apps, My mind was consumed by my work 24-7. Very few thoughts were on the Lord, I had a plan, and I was being successful. And now as I saw what was happening, old nature was in charge, and I had fallen into the trap of pride and selfishness. Even though I read my Bible and prayed I wanted Him to see that I had a great plan, and would he bless me, but it was my plan, and I was in charge of me. Now I understand what John wrote; 1Jo 2:16 NLT
For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father but are from this world.
It’s amazing how times change, and now that I am old and no longer working the old nature has not given up. He is still determined to get my eyes off Christ and unto myself.
For example, financial resources and health issues. Thoughts of not being able to care for myself. The old nature will try to convince me that I will become helpless, and I will have pain and suffering and mental anguish. He tells me don’t trust in God He is not answering your prayers. What is one to do? The only hope is to turn to Christ and trust him to fight the enemy and get through each day Proverbs 3:5 trust in the Lord with all your heart lean not unto your own understanding in all your ways acknowledge him and he will direct your path. In Luke Jesus told His disciples that they need not to worry all their needs will be met by the heavenly father.
As seniors we all have times when we just feel bad in body and mind. At times I am not able to sleep during the night, headache, and body ache. Other times extreme fatigue and the feeling of extreme coldness from within, this may be accompanied by the feeling that I am going crazy. This brings fear and anxiety.
But then comes my help, my help is in the name of the Lord who provides hope. By faith in God fear and anxiety are overcome, and His love washes over me, and I am blessed. And so, I get my eyes on Jesus and read His word and the fear and anxiety disappear. One important thing I have learned is do not plan for tomorrow, just live by faith one day at a time. While we are here on this old earth we must continually be in the word and keep looking up. Del
