Jesus is preparing a place for each of us in His Father’s Kingdom. When I finally make it home I will be so happy. Jesus will come and receive me as He will for all His faithful. I will fall down on my knees to worship Him. When I look up and see Him I will stand in awe at His beauty and my soul will be amazed. I will run to Him. I will wrap my arms around Him. I will tell Him how much I love Him. How much I longed for Him. How I tried to live my life every day for Him. How the man I became is all because of Him. That through His sacrifice I was able to escape a life of sin. That because of His example I found out how to live. That through Him I was able to feel a love I had never felt before. There is so much I want to tell Him.
Through our love for Jesus our Father will be glorified. It is only through Jesus that we can make it to Heaven and into the Father’s Kingdom. If we truly love Jesus than we won’t be scared of death. We will embrace it when the day comes. We will live each day to please Him. We will anxiously spread the word of Jesus’s love. Our hearts will be filled with His joy. People won’t help but notice a change in our lives. True joy is the most sought after thing and when people see it in our lives they won’t help but ask questions. We can only hope that these people will come to Jesus and feel His love in their lives. That Jesus may take them home after this life. What a glorious day it will be when my family is raised up to Jesus. I will be shouting for joy. All praise Jesus.
John 14:1-4,12,13
1 “Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me.
2 In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also.
4 And where I go you know, and the way you know.”
12 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.
13 And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
