Here For You

There were inquirers who approached Jesus with questions. One of note-worthiness to me was one that reminds me of certain seemingly add-ons about matters of our status in heaven. A story was rehearsed to Jesus about a succession of brothers who died with each marrying their brother's widow. The question was, "Whose wife will the woman be in eternity?" Jesus' answer about our heavenly status was a very informative but simple one that speaks to the problems of the assumptions we make versus sound Biblical truth. i.e., We often hear someone speaking of deceased loved ones being like angels in heaven watching over us and influencing matters in our earthly existence. I don't know this to be a sound Biblical truth, but who dares to correct a grieving soul needing reassurance and comfort. I even have reservations expressing this thought presently. In reality, there are times that our listening ears are far superior to our lips of truth. In reality, our offerings of hope are much more vital than our gifts of theology. In reality, with deep love and devotion, may it suffice us to simply say, "Wherever you are, however you feel, whatever you say; PRESENTLY, I AM HERE FOR YOU". 063023PS.
