The Gospel of John - John 16:16-33 | Your Grief Will Turn to Joy

On this Mother's Day, our next passage in the Gospel of John very fittingly compares the disciple's mourning to the anguish of a mother in childbirth, which doesn't compare to the joy she experiences once the baby is born! Similarly, the pain and trials we endure on this earth are only temporary, and do not compare to the joyful reality of our future with Christ. We have hope in Jesus, no matter what we are going through!
