John 14:1-3,"Let not your hearts be troubled;you believe in God,believe also in Me.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.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." (NKJV)
Here we have the words of God the Son,Himself,telling us not to fear or allow our hearts to be troubled. Anyone with the sense to discern what's going on in the world today,would have to agree,unless they are in complete denial of reality,that we are living in troublesome times. Aren't you glad though,that we have an Heavenly hope of going home one day? In my opinion,take it for what it's worth,we are closer now to the Lord's return for His people,than at any other time in history! We really don't have to be geniuses,or rocket scientists,to know this. If you are a truly Born Again child of God,then you sense it in your spirit,that it won't be long now.
For those who truly belong to God the Father,through God the Son's sacrificial death,burial and resurrection,should not be living in fear,but in anticipation. Anticipation of His soon return! Are you saying you don't love your children or grandchildren,and don't you want to see them grow up? Well,of course I do! But what I love more than that is Jesus Christ. Jesus said,"If a man love father or mother,or children,or lands or houses,or even his own life,more than Me,is not worthy of Me." (Matt.10:34-39).
If anything in this life takes more priority in your life than loving God with all of your heart,mind,spirit and soul,then Jesus said you were not worthy of Him. You may think this is extreme,and that He couldn't possibly have meant it that way! Well,are you willing to take the chance of being wrong,especially if it will cost you your soul? I can't speak for anyone but me,but,I'm not willing to take the chance that He didn't mean what He said. It is extreme,but ,what Jesus did for us at the cross to save us was rather extreme,don't you agree? The choice is yours,please make the right choice! I've made mine,and I've decided that I will not allow anything to deter my walk with Christ,with His grace and help,I'm going to make it. He's coming soon,get ready!
