grieving to joy

hey sorry guys i missed my last post, i totally forgot about it but heres mine for today: 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."

First of all this is one of my favorite verses in the bible and its the last verse of the chapter which is a cool way to end it up. I heard it at church a while ago and it really hit me and in a way motivates me. Jesus is telling us straight forward that we will suffer in this world but that he has "overcome the world!" and there is therefore nothing to worry about! even though it is hard sometimes in this world, knowing that i have a relationship with the one who "overcame the world," i think is really powerful.
