Oh what Treasure awaits you.

Grace and peace to you my friends,

"For we know that if the tent that is our earthly home is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens." 2 Corinthians 5:1 ESV

Brothers and Sisters in Christ, does this thought not excite you? What confidence we can have knowing that this physical body isn't the end but just the beginning of something glorious. My thought for you today is a simple one.

Do you spend enough time dwelling on or meditating on the Bible's description of the glorious prize that is Christ and His eternal kingdom? I must confess that I don't feel like I spend nearly enough of my time on it. I'm sure if that if I did, I would be much more excited to share the knowledge of the treasure that Christ and God's promises are for us.

My friends does your heart not long for the eternal home that awaits you? Perhaps you already know a little about what the Bible teaches on this but just don't ever think about it. Well stop what you're doing and spend just one minute, more if you have the time, dwelling seriously on what it means for you to be headed to eternity in the presence of Christ, living in paradise forever, never getting boarded because there will always be more for us to enjoy as God takes all of eternity to share the riches of Himself with us. Now take that picture, that vision and share it with some one today. Invite them to share in the joy and hope of Christ and His paradise.

"For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison," 2 Corinthians 4:17 ESV

For the Joy of Your Faith and the hope of Paradise,
Teagan
