Comparison

They say "comparison is the theif of joy" but I think maybe that depends on what's being compared. For Paul, he had great insight into what God has in store for His children. Paul knew of the glory and majesty and blessings that God will give to them that believe on that great and last day. For Paul, that meant that comparison was a source of joy because he was able to look past the present sufferings and look forward to the new home. 

If we compare anything, let's look forward with joy at the hope we have in Jesus. 

“For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison, as we look not to the things that are seen but to the things that are unseen.”
—2 Corinthians 4:17-18

"I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
and in his word I hope; my soul waits for the Lord
more than those who watch for the morning,
more than those who watch for the morning." --Psalms 130:5-6
