Scripture reveals that God has prepared imperishable, glorified bodies for those who belong to Him — bodies that will share in Christ's resurrection power.

Prayer
Jesus taught us to pray with confidence about our future hope (Matthew 6:9).
Father, You are the God who raises the dead and gives life. I confess that I sometimes focus too much on my failing body and forget Your eternal promise. Help me live today with the hope of resurrection, knowing that this weak body will be transformed into something glorious like Christ's. Give me strength to honor You with this temporary tent while I wait for my eternal home. In Jesus' name, Amen.
