And to you who are troubled rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven with his mighty angels,
And for all of you going through it right now, you'll get to rest right alongside us when Jesus shows up from heaven with his powerful angels.
Your struggles have an expiration date, Jesus is coming with backup.
