A reward for our struggles
- Thread starter Brock
- Start date
Yes there is Brock and the reward for those who are in Christ and He in them is our inheritance of eternal life with the Father in the New Jerusalem where there will never be any evil anymore, but only joy and happiness. That is Gods promise to us.

He's right. There isn't absolutely anything you can do to earn it. It is given freely. You just have to want to accept it. The real reward for accepting the gift of salvation is eternal life.
Salvation is more of a gift than a reward but I get what you mean
I wasn't talking about salvation being a reward, but only the promise of life eternal with Christ being our inheritance as our reward.
Hi Brock,
Life has shown me that when we go through some difficulty we don't really understand why.
Then later on in life, you may look back on it and realize that some good did come out of it. Maybe the difficulty was preparing you for something, or maybe it contributed to your becoming a much stronger person, or maybe how to deal with some problem in the future.
God always works all things out for the good. The problem is that sometimes we don't trust Him. Trust don't come easy! But we should somehow learn to trust in Him.
