When death comes to those we love.

May we in our deep grief and sorrow

know that those who truly know

Jesus Christ as Lord, death for them

is truly a victorious door of hope to the life

they have always dreamed.  Oh yes we grieve

but with the eternal reality that one day we will

not only see our Savior face to face but we will see

them again on Heaven’s shore with beautiful,

perfected eternal bodies worshiping our Savior

while they live in the wonder and beauty of a Heavenly

city, whose light is the glory and love of our Triune God.

Oh they will be waiting for you and me in the gem studded

celestial city to welcome us into Heaven’s incomprehensible,

exquisite splendors when it is time for our earthly journey to

come to a close. Oh they will be there dear ones. They will be

there waiting, watching, worshipping, and joyfully living in

Holy, jubilant, exuberant wonder as they expectantly

wait to welcome all they know and love, home!

When we look more like the

world than Jesus Christ,

King of Glory,creator, author

and sustainer of all beauty

and all our bountiful blessings,

oh how our Savior must weep!

Ahhh children of grace

whenever verbal wounds

of shame and humiliation

are inflicted upon a child

of the living God, may

we as His royal heirs

step back and

breathe in the

loveliness of Christ

and breathe out

as our response

the beauty and

gentle tenderness

of Jesus Christ!

Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.

For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.

Hebrews 4:14-15 (KJV)

Inasmuch then as we have a great High Priest Who has [already] ascended and passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession [of faith in Him].

For we do not have a High Priest Who is unable to understand and sympathize and have a shared feeling with our weaknesses and infirmities and liability to the assaults of temptation, but One Who has been tempted in every respect as we are, yet without sinning.

Hebrews 4:14-15 (AMP)

Let us hold on to our most precious faith in Jesus Christ, the Lord

until our Savior comes or until he take us triumphantly home.

For our precious Savior’s righteousness exceeds our own.

For His precious costly cross procures salvation when

accepted and believed and has brought this sinner to her

knees in humble, joyful, thankful gratitude and praise.

For Jesus Christ, King of Kings and Lord of Lords is

indeed our tender, compassionate and mericiful

High Priest and is forever joyfully and ceaselessly interceding,

caring, and providing for all His beloved royal heirs!

Let us hold on to our most precious faith in Jesus Christ the Lord

until our Savior comes or until he take us triumphantly home.

Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.

Hebrews 4:11 (KJV)

 Let us therefore be zealous and exert ourselves and strive diligently to enter that rest [of God, to know and experience it for ourselves], that no one may fall or perish by the same kind of unbelief and disobedience [into which those in the wilderness fell].

Hebrews 4:11 (AMP)

May our labor

our passion,

and our journey

of obedient faith be

to grow in the peace

and rest giving grace

and knowledge of our

Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.

Let us therefore fear, lest, a promise being left us of entering into his rest, any of you should seem to come short of it.

Hebrews 4:1 (KJV)

Therefore, while the promise of entering His rest still holds and is offered [today], let us be afraid [to distrust it], lest any of you should ^[think he has come too late and has come short of [reaching] it.

Hebrews 4:1 (AMP)

May we run to

the truth and

victory-filled

promises found

in the living

Word of our

Holy God

and believe

accept,

and rest

by ardent

faith in what

Jesus Christ

has done for us

through the cross,

through His blood,

and through His

precious and

most blessed

resurrection power!

Jesus Christ the Lord

is our blessed hope!

For His death has set

all sin filled captives

triumphantly free.

May our faith

in Jesus Christ

never, ever dim!

May all our days

be filled with our

Savior’s praise

because of  His

monumental

and sacrificial

love for you

and for me!

May every

thing I ever

write be

praise of

my personal

Lord and precious,

Savior, Jesus Christ

King of Kings!

What if the

only internal

script we

allowed in

our souls,

minds, hearts

and lives was

the Holy words

of our Living God?

May the living

Biblical, inerrant

truth found in

the word of God

be our joyful

internal script

as we go

throughout

our day!
