No truth in all of scripture can produce the overwhelming Joy that this does for those who know it to be 100% true! I desire for all to know this truth, because when hardship comes, and we know it will, we can say with doubt cast to the side that our God is an awesome God and he is fully capable of holding us to his side no matter the cost to our flesh. To live is CHRIST! and to die is REWARD!
