If He Should Come

Should the Lord return today would you be caught off guard and would you find it very hard to tell him how sorry you were that you didn’t feel the need to ask him into your heart perhaps because you didn’t feel worthy to bother him or feel that you didn’t somehow measure up. We all have felt that way at some point in our lives, but Jesus knows everything and nothing is unseen and he longs for us to come to him as a child would go to his earthly father for comfort and love.  When God created man he desired to have fellowship with him thus so he longs to have personal intimate fellowship with us.  Have you ever stood at the foot of a mountain and was overwhelmed at it’s beauty and just know that you had nothing to do with it…Only God could have done it…and then on a clear spring night, have you ever gazed up into the heaven’s and see the stars all scattered into place, perfectly designed to make the night sky a magical carpet, and to think he knows them all by name.
I could go on and on but I think you get the drift here…and as it says in the word, God created the Heaven’s and the earth and all that is in it.
One man said to me.. I don’t believe in the Heaven you sing about and I don’t belive in God or Hell….and he said what do you think of that…I said your asking me…?  So without hesitation, I said well sir, if your going around all of your life proclaiming that there is no God, no Heaven or Hell…when it’s all said and done….”you’d better be right”..
The gentleman lowered his head and just walked away…
In the end we have to be right with our maker to enter the kingdom of God…he came as a sacrifice for your sins. And he’s not letting us just do as we please and expect to enter his sinless Heaven..Salvation is as simple as the thief that hung next to him when he said “Remember Me “  Notice that’s not a prayer of repentance, but Jesus’s reply was, This day you shall be with me in paradice….So daily my prayer is Lord, Remember me.
I hope these words have been an encouragement to you and that you will find it in your heart to except and trust the one that loves you more than you’ll ever know, and that’s Jesus Christ himself.
