When we all get to heaven.

When we all get to heaven what a day of rejoicing that will be. When we all see Jesus we'll clap and shout for victory!!
This morning while having some Selah ( pause and think about it ) time, I had this vision of all my loved ones around me, parents, children, grandchildren, siblings, cousins, aunts, uncles, grandparents, friends and were all in heaven standing in front of our father God and Lord and Savor Jesus. I felt we were all so happy and relieved and thankful and so full of love. I don't want to be anywhere else but right there.... Right now.... Come Lord Jesus come. :))

The Lord's patience means Salvation.

I am so much looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, the home of righteousness. I sometimes get impatient, wanting the Lord to come back right now, this minute, but when I read this scripture it reminds me that God is patient with us, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance. I wouldn't want any one of my family or friends to be left behind, or to be without God for all eternity. So, I will remember what the scripture says, the Lord's Patience means Salvation. Salvation for you, Salvation for me, Salvation for anyone who believes in the Lord Jesus and asks him. That's worth the wait to me.

2 Peter 3- 8 But do not forget this one thing, dear friends: With the Lord a day is like a thousand years, and a thousand years are like a day. 9 The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise, as some understand slowness. He is patient with you, not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance.
10 But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare.
11 Since everything will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people ought you to be? You ought to live holy and godly lives 12 as you look forward to the day of God and speed its coming.That day will bring about the destruction of the heavens by fire, and the elements will melt in the heat. 13 But in keeping with his promise we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, the home of righteousness.
14 So then, dear friends, since you are looking forward to this, make every effort to be found spotless, blameless and at peace with him. 15 Bear in mind that our Lord's patience means salvation, just as our dear brother Paul also wrote you with the wisdom that God gave him.

Heaven

This morning I was Reading in the word and came to the part in John 14:1-4 where Jesus was comforting His disciples, He was telling them about how he was going to prepare a place for us. Well, It made me stop and think, God made the world so beautiful, the trees, flowers, sky, ocean, mountains and everything that he has put on the earth. Our earth is a beautiful place. Really, we can not even fathom what Heaven is going to be like, some think it will be all airy, spirit's flying around a big place of openness but I think that it is going to be soooooo much more than that, just look at the earth and Gods artistic hand, just think if God made the world as beautiful as it is now just wait until we see Heaven, it will be so much more than we could have ever thought of. Our little minds could not even imagine it on our own. It will be a awesome site! I cant wait!

Jesus Comforts His Disciples
1"Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. 2In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. 3And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. 4You know the way to the place where I am going."

Salvation Prayer

Salvation Prayer


Dear Father,

I now believe that Jesus Christ is Your only begotten Son, that He came to our earth in the flesh and died on the cross to take away all of my sins and the sins of this world. I believe that Jesus Christ then rose from the dead on the third day to give all of us eternal life.

Lord Jesus,

I now confess to You all of the wrong and sinful things I have ever done in my life. I ask that You please forgive Me and wash away all of my sins by the blood that You have personally shed for me on the cross. I am now ready to accept You as my personal Lord and Savior. I now ask that You come into my life and live with Me for all of eternity.

Father, Jesus - I now believe that I am truly saved and born again.

Thank you Father.
Thank you Jesus.

Friendship

It's so important to remember your friends. Sending them cards with special sayings meant just for them. A phone call just to talk is such a good thing to do, this creates a bonding time. Dinner party's are one of my favorite things to do with friends, you never know what fun conversation will happen. Most of all, always remember them in your prayers, you never know what might be going on in thier life. And uplift your friends, they will love you for that. We all need to hear good things about ourselves.

The One Who Jesus Loved

Have you ever thought about what your favorite book of the Bible is?

I have, it's the Book of John. Why? Because John wrote that he was the one that Jesus Loved. I love the way that John thought of himself, he new that Jesus loved him, and John loved Jesus. Sometimes I think about what it would have been like to be with Jesus in the flesh here on the earth, and I think that I would have been just like John, I would be hanging on Jesus' every word, following Him around everywhere, my eyes would always be directed His way, watching His every move, I too would be touching Him and leaning on Him . What devotion and love John had for our Jesus. And what a good example for us today. I love Jesus, I'm devoted to Him, I follow Him, I keep my eyes continually on Him watching His every move, I touch Him with my praise and worship, my longing to see Him face to face, to touch Him, to hold Him and Him hold me. I'm waiting Lord Jesus; I'm waiting for your return, the time when we will all have our own special time with you. That's why John is my favorite book.

John 13:23
One of them, the disciple whom Jesus loved, was reclining next to him.


John 20:2
So she came running to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one Jesus loved, and said, "They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don't know where they have put him!"


John 21:20
Peter turned and saw that the disciple whom Jesus loved was following them. (This was the one who had leaned back against Jesus at the supper and had said, "Lord, who is going to betray you?")

I have learned to let go. :))

In my bible study and prayer time this morning I pondered about my life, my hurts, and un forgiveness. The holy spirit led me to write down the ones who have hurt me. If I had forgiven them or not. What they did to me. I thought and wrote it all out and came to an understanding that being attacked personally is very hurtful. But, I realized as I looked at the names that family was much easier to forgive because family is so very important to me. :) it comes easier for me. Now the other thing I learned is that others who are " friends" who have hurt me really don't matter any more so why continue to hold on to that hurt. Their opinion of me is not important anymore because they do not value me as a person or a friend. I've learned that I can forgive them and let them go. Thank you Lord for helping me and showing me ..... Myself :)) I understand now. I've learned to love, forgive and trust God with everything and "to let go". :)))

Forgiving Others

Matt 6:14-15, 18:21,22 Keep on forgiving.
Mark 11:25 Don't forget to forgive others while praying. We want Jesus to forgive us don't we? :o)
Col 3:13 Put up with one another. Yep, We've got to do it folks. :o)
Philippians 3;13-14 Forget whats behind us. Press on :o) Don't keep thinking about it!!
Isaiah 43:18-19 Remember NOT. :O)
Eph 4:31-32
Let all bitterness and indignation and wrath (passion, rage, bad temper) and resentment (anger, animosity) and quarreling (brawling, clamor, contention) and slander (evil-speaking, abusive or blasphemous language) be banished from you, with all malice (spite, ill will, or baseness of any kind).32  And become useful and helpful and kind to one another, tenderhearted (compassionate, understanding, loving-hearted), forgiving one another [readily and freely], as God in Christ forgave you.

We all just want to be loved. This was just too good not to share.

He tends his flock like a Shepherd:

He gathers the lambs in His arms

and carries them close to His heart.

Isaiah 40:11



Did you know that we all crave to be loved? That’s why when someone hurts us so badly that “trust” is so hard to regain. We take it out on God thinking He doesn’t love us at all because we were hurt one too many times. However, only God can fill that Void.

This verse clearly states that He makes sure we are taken care of! Not only that but He takes us into His very loving arms and holds us close to His heart. Wow! What a vivid picture! Imagine holding a new born baby. They are so fragile but you carry them and hold them close to you and you love on them. Now imagine God doing that with us. It’s amazing because His love never fails and His love sustains us. We are human beings, when we are faithless, He is still faithful to us. Let God love on you. Let Him mend your broken heart. Give Him a chance to hold you in His arms and close to His heart and see what He’ll do. Will you let Him?
