Recently, the Scripture for the day was Luke
6:38 “Give, and it will be given
to you. They will pour into your lap a
good measure – pressed down, shaken together, and running over. For by your standard of measure it will, be
measured to you in return.”
Do
you remember Mr. Diggs from July 16? As
I mentioned from world standards he was a total flop. I mean he did not rise to the top of the
corporate ladder. In all prob- ability
he did not even move beyond the kinder-garden level of the corporate
ladder. By world standard he was a
nothing burger.
But
what he did have was many stars in his crown for the kick- ball crowd who sat
under his counsel and teaching those many days when He shared that Abba Daddy
loved them with an unconditional love.
I was
sitting on the patio several days ago and happened to look up and the sky was
fabulous. There were multitudes of
beautifully formed clouds, each one unique in size and color and Paul’s words
popped into my mind: “I know a man in
Christ who fourteen years ago – whether in the body I do not know, or out of
the body I did not know, God knows – such a man was caught up to the third
heaven” (2 Cor. 12:2).
Is
that not a fabulous verse? As I laid
there with my head back looking into the heavens I wondered, if God suddenly
rolled back that sky, what would I see?
John says, “One day we will see a
new heaven and a new earth, and a holy Jerusalem coming down out of heaven from
God, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband”, having the glory of God,
Her brilliance was like a very costly stone, as a stone of crystal-clear and
jasper”. (Rev. 21:2) . Does that get
your ticker to ticking faster?
Sooo,
my young warriors, when the rubber-hits-the-road today, and it will probably
hit- the-road, if you are waking with Jesus as your Lord for Satan does have
sufficient darts to make our lives a challenge, take a moment and walk outside
and look to the heavens and remember, God has already prepared the New Heaven
and Earth, one that will be free from the bondages of the evil one!”
Blessings,
Gramps
