Thanks Idealist,

Without Christ, the resurrection hope and promise, I do not think it would
be possible. My anchor, through Christ, is to a world beyond this one. Yes,
we are in the world and it is tough, very tough at times. But Christ's promise -
that of eternal life, a new Heaven, a new and glorious Earth, new Heavenly
bodies and peace, without tears, sin, death - these promises keep me buoyed
amidst any storm here.

It is not easy but, through faith, persevering in Christ, because he first
loved me and showed the way to true peace - knowing and trusting in him -
has made the difference in my life.
