I have said these things to you, that in me you may
have peace. In the world you will have tribulation.
But take heart; I have overcome the world.
Does anyone else see Him smiling while saying that last sentence?

Favorite Biblical Verse
Perhaps my very favorite Biblical verse of all time is John 16:33 (here in ESV):
I have said these things to you, that in me you may
have peace. In the world you will have tribulation.
But take heart; I have overcome the world.

That's perhaps my second favorite, but it wouldn't have occurred to me if you hadn't mentioned it, and I do find it somewhat comforting. Especially since, "in the world, you will have tribulations," stands as more of an understatement than, "in the Sahara Desert, you will find grains of sand," or "in the Atlantic Ocean, you will find molecules of water," or "in the supermarket, you will find that the milk has been overpriced."
