John 16:33

"I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world."

I came across this verse while I was doing some reading this morning. I've heard it many, many times but something about these words really caught my attention today. This passage makes me think about all the little, itty bitty things that I let overwhelm my thoughts and how in comparison to the bigger picture, they really aren't worth worrying about. He has overcome world- there is no better news than this. He has overcome the world to save us from our troubles, big and small. Each time I am reminded of this, I find myself in awe. We are so unworthy, yet we are given so much. My mind will never fully understand this concept.
