And behold, I (Jesus) come quickly; and My reward is with Me, to give every man according as his work shall be.
Revelation 22:12
UNFATHOMABLE REWARD
Good Morning Beloved,
HAPPY MONDAY! 
Remember the Word tells us:
For we must all appear before the judgment seat of CHRIST; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he has done, whether it be good or bad. [2 Corinthians 5:10]
We don’t know when, but we know that the stage, so to speak, is set for humanity’s next greatest event… the return of Jesus. To some that evoke’s absolute terror in their hearts. Others, couldn’t care less… right now. On that day, nothing else will matter. What will matter is what we did with Jesus… and what we did for Jesus. God wants us to live, really live the life He has given us. It is more precious than the purest gold and more beautiful than the most flawless diamond. We are priceless. One of a kind. Designer’s orginals. That is why He does not want to lose even one soul to the evil one. That is why He has been so patient and merciful. That is why people can seem to get away with all sorts of evil and we wonder why God does not “stop” them. I remind myself that His ways are not my ways. They are so much higher, because His vantage point is so much higher than mine. We see the signs of His nearness all around us. We can almost hear the foot-tapping in Heaven as Jesus is about to leave His seat on the right Hand of God, step out and call us to Himself. In the meantime. Right now. We have… “right now”. To do what He has called us to do. To love like crazy… forgive, trust God like never before. To lean on Him and not to our own understanding, because we only know what we know. To be a blessing. To really enjoy our salvation. To not ‘sweat’ the small stuff. Yes, irritating things come up. Bad things happen to good people, in the middle of our valley experiences, we need to remind ourselves that God is right there. Trouble “don’t” last always. Yesterday, we had a memorial service honoring the mother of our church who passed on.. Mother Alice Hughes. She was a extraordinary lady with a multitude of children, grand-children and great-grand children. She was loving, gracious and generous. She was outspoken and never bit her tongue, but you knew whatever she said it was out of love and concern. She wanted the best for everyone around her. When she gave her life to Christ, He did a miraculous work in her. We did not even know how sick she was. She never complained, never grumbled and she always had a praise on her lips. When she passed, she was surrounded by her family, but what will always stick in my mind, was how she tried to comfort them. She told them, “I don’t know what’s wrong with y’all, I’m going to see Jesus”. Wow… That should be our attitude everyday. Whether we go to meet Him, or He comes back for all of us, our posture should be the same… “It is well with my soul”. We have a friend that sticks closer to us than any brother. We have a Savior who loves us unconditionally and completely, but who told us that ~
“holiness, without no man will see the Lord”.
His concern for us is evident all through the pages of scripture. His love is never-ending. Things are happening quickly. Things that have been held up are being released. His Spirit is strenthening us in every area of our lives and we will be what He had in mind when He designed us. We are about to receive an “unfathomable reward”. One that is beyond our wildest imagination. One that will blow our mind.. it’s closer than ever before…
… and that Beloved is Good News!
Y Stress? … U Blessed!
Have A Fabulous Day
