In church yesterday during testimony time, a person mentioned something that made my mind ponder. Although I do not remember what was said, I do remember what it made me think about.
Let your mind drift for a few minutes and think of that glorious day when the Lord will come and take us all home. I know there are some that do not believe in the Rapture or Catching Away of the church, but for the multitude of us who do, consider on that day after the dead in Christ have risen and we that are alive and remain have been changed, in that twinkling of an eye after we are all joined together, what will the trip home be like..
Yeah, I do not have a clue if we will instantly be in heaven with the Lord or if it will be like traveling, nor does it really matter, but that is not my focus here. The part I thought about is after we get there as we enter into the gates of that heavenly City, what it will be like. The great multitude of the redeemed, all in glorified bodies, coming thru the gates of that City. What a time that will be! All of the heavily host witnessing the glorified church coming home! The thunder of that great number of people, the roar of praise flowing out of our mouths, as we celebrate and worship while entering those gates! All of us with our Lord!
What a time that will be! Lord let it be this year! Come sweet Lord, Come!
