I've got many favorite verses and phrases in the Bible that I like thinking about, or reading, and even sometimes quoting. One of these is actually just the beginning of a lot of verses that you find in the Bible, that I believe holds meaning that we do well to remember.
"It came to pass..." You find over and over where the Bible will tell of something happening and it will say "It came to pass" in this city that this happened. This is a lesson that can be encouraging or maybe a warning depending on what is going on in your life.
I don't know where you are in life as you read this. Life may be great at this moment, and it may really stink. If things just don't seem to be going your way at all, just remember that "It came to pass." It's not permanent, it will pass. Things will always eventually get better.
At the same time, maybe right now everything is going your way. Everything is great. The impulse in these times is to live like everything is going to stay this way from now on. You might want to keep in mind that bad times are not the only thing that comes to pass. Good times can pass as well. Use the good times to put yourself in a position that when the bad times come, you're not left in such a bad position.
So what ever is going on with you right now, just remember, this too shall pass.
