Tell Them About The House With Many Rooms…
Good morning beautiful people, good morning. Happy Sunday! It’s been a busy weekend. I stood before a group of people yesterday, as together we celebrated the life of a beautiful soul now in heaven. I never had the privilege to meet this beautiful person here on earth but have made friendships with several of her family members.
It is so reassuring to know that our loved ones that are gone on before us are walking on the streets of gold. (Revelation 21) I read a favorite family poem they shared with me titled Footprints In The Sand, penned by Margaret Fishback Powers (1964). Actually, let me share it with you today as well.
One night I dreamed a dream. As I was walking along the beach with my Lord.
Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life. For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand, One belonging to me and one to my Lord. After the last scene of my life flashed before me, I looked back at the footprints in the sand. I noticed that at many times along the path of my life, especially at the very lowest and saddest times, there was only one set of footprints. “I don’t understand why, when I need You most, You would leave me.” He whispered, “My precious child, I love you and will never leave you, Never, ever, during your trials and testing’s. When you saw only one set of footprints, It was then that I carried you.”
I brought a message of love to people, some that know him and some that don’t. I wanted them to know and experience the love of God for themselves. I gave the reassurance that they too can choose where they will spend eternity. John 14 1-3 tells us to do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.
I am living every day the very best, as this is my best year yet. How about you? Someday our lives will be over here on earth, and we too will move to our house that God has prepared for us, that’s if we choose.
Let’s Pray:
Father, you said to tell them, and I take every opportunity you give me to tell them, and I will tell the world again today.
Tell them I love them…Tell them they are mine…
Tell them I will never leave them nor forsake them.
Tell them they are precious gems…Tell them I see them as perfect.
Tell them they reflect my image…Tell them not to look back.
Tell them to look straight ahead…Tell them I laid out the red carpet for them.
My blood, It was enough.
Tell them, tell them, tell them again!
John 3:16 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.
Jesus loves you… Believe! Yes you!
