Our Last Journey

[Christ4Ever]

I had to share to this. We're all heading in this direction, not knowing the date or time, but all the same a certainty.
Most awesome thought is being with the Lord in His Kingdom, is only made more joyful (If that were possible!),
with the knowledge that there will be so many brothers & sisters in Christ Jesus that I will get to meet! Praising
Him, Most Holy with those most dear to me! Until then! Life, and more abundantly!

John 10:10
***********************************************************************************************************************************************

Heaven at any price is well secured. A good hope through grace is worth a thousand worlds. But it is a mistake to suppose that melancholy attends upon fitness to die. Why should it? To be unprepared for death, and to know that it may come at any moment, is a fair reason for sadness, but to have that great matter secure must surely be a source of joy. To be prepared to die is to be prepared to live; to be ready for eternity is in the best sense to be ready for time. Who so fit to live on earth as the man who is fit to live in heaven? Who hath brightness of the eye? Is it not the man who has looked within the gate of pearl, and seen his place prepared among the blessed? Who hath lightness of heart? Is it not the man who is unloaded of his sin, and has found mercy through the blood of Christ?
