Are you God’s Child?

Why do Jesus and his angels rejoice over on repenting sinner? Can they see something we can’t? Do they know something we don’t? Absolutely! They know what heaven holds. They’ve seen the table, and they can’t wait to see your face when you arrive. Better still, they can’t wait to see you.

When you arrive and enter the party, something wonderful will happen. A final transformation will occur. You will be like Jesus. Let’s look at 1 John 3:2 “We have not yet been shown what we will be in the future. But we know that when Christ comes again, we will be Like Him” Of all the blessings of heaven, one of the greatest will be you! You will be God’s work of art. God’s work will be completed in you and at last you will have a heart like His.

You will love with a perfect love…You will worship a radiant face….You will hear each word God speaks…Your heart will be pure, your words will be like jewels and your thoughts will be like treasures.  You will be just like Jesus. You will at long last, have a heart like His.

Envision the heart of Jesus and you’ll be envisioning you own. You will be guiltless, fearless, thrilled and joyous, tirelessly worshiping. And if that were not enough, everyone else will be like him as well. “Heaven is the perfect place for people made perfect” Heaven is populated by those who let God change them.  Arguments will cease, for jealousy won’t exist. Suspicions won’t surface, for there will be no secrets. Every sin is gone. Every insecurity is forgotten. Every fear is past. No wonder the angels rejoice when one sinner repents; they know another work of art will soon grace the gallery of God. They know what heaven holds.

Do you really believe that you will be a blessing in heaven? Make your own list of the types of transformations you’ll be looking forward to. Thank God that you will be perfect then and strive to live like it now.
