Are There Companion Verses to 'This Too Shall Pass'?
Though the phrase "this too shall pass" isn't listed in the Bible, there are several verses that closely resemble this term and could be interpreted as sharing the same sentiment.
Most notably is 2 Corinthians 4:17-18: For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal.
It can be seen that "our light affliction, which is but for a moment," could easily be connected to "this too shall pass" in saying this issue we are dealing with now will soon be behind us. Many know the verse from 1 Corinthians 10:13, reminding believers that temptations will not overtake us because, "God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it."
Mishael: I believe trials strengthen our faith. We don't always appreciate it, but it accomplishes it's task if we allow.
These days, I pray often to remind me that God will never abandon Israel; nor the grafted in believers in Jesus.
This is the time of the great Harvest. Pray to the Lord of the Harvest.
You know, this year Amazon Prime is showing Mel Gibsons film: the Passion of the Christ. When Jesus got to the hill of Golgotha, his resolve was mind blowing. It will unleash a flood of tears you cannot stop. He endured the sins of the whole world. Israel will receive their Messiah. Pray it, because he wants us to.
Not in Bible scripture however, I feel the idea in many ways is: Psalms 37, 2Corinthians 4, Noteably 2Corinthians 4:16,17, 1Peter 4:7,12,13, 1Peter 4:17-19, 2Timothy 2:3, Matthew 24:13, Mark 13:13, 2Thessalonians 1, Psalms 30:5, James 5:10-11, Psalms 62:5, Proverbs 20:22,
