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.

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?")
