Walking with God in 2019
When I asked Jesus to forgive my sins, as a sixteen-year-old young man, I had no idea, or concept of the kingdom Citizenship I had acquired!
When I prayed, confessed, and repented of my sins, I was aware of the sacrifice which gave me that privilege. I had been so burdened by guilt that it felt like I had dropped a pack off my shoulders when I prayed!
Since then I have been amassing an ever-increasing understanding of my blessings. Sixty-eight years later, as I inventory the massive mountain of blessings, here are a few:
- That the creator of all is interested in hearing from me in prayer.
- He wants to fellowship with me as He did with Adam before the fatal fruit.
- He had a plan for my life before I was born.
- If I am seeking His will, He will orchestrate my life to accomplish His will for me.
- The Bible is full of God’s promises which cover every need and every phase of life.
- Jesus actually meant everything He said.
- God’s word, the Bible is true and it can be used to judge my experiences; not the other way around!
- God is love and everything He plans for me is a result of His love for me.
- My love for Him is shown by my obedience to His commands.
- And the list goes on and on! BUT the greatest blessing of all is His creation of HEAVEN FOR OUR FUTURE…NO…for our ETERNITY!

Heaven, WOW: the place where the GLORY of GOD is fully displayed and experienced! Looking at Him clearly, not through a glass darkened by lack of knowledge or understanding. Because my faith in His son permits me to be wrapped in His robes of righteousness and I can leap into the lap of the Father and be hugged as His son! No more need for work on being transformed into Christlikeness. The transformation will be complete! I will not have lost who I am, but I will be the person I was created to be in the perfect form! We will know perfect unity in our worship and praise, no criticism of how we praise ALMIGHTY GOD, and there will be no offense in the presence of pure love. There will be no competition for titles, positions of power, no “corporate jealousy”, no politicking for favor. We will all be in the presence perfect love, perfect power, THE ALMIGHTY GOD who is the great “I AM”; the creator of perfection!
Gates of pearl, golden streets, oh, those are fine, but being in the presence of our friends and family praising God together…OH! THAT’S HEAVEN TO ME!!!
