He has put it in writing

For this world is not our permanent home; we are looking forward to a home yet to come. (Hebrew 13:14 NLT)

 If you were told that a brand-new splendid home was yours, bought and paid for, would you believe it? What if it was guaranteed in writing? Wouldn’t you believe it then? Wouldn’t you start dreaming of the day you would move in? And how do you suppose that news would change your life and priorities in the meantime?
 Well, someone has promised you such an eternal home—Jesus—and He has put it in writing. “In My Father’s house are many mansions. I go to prepare a place for you”, (John 14:2)
 Even the most luxurious home won’t do you much good without good health and time to enjoy it, so God made provision for those too. “I am the resurrection and the life,” Jesus promises. “He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live. And whoever lives and believes in Me shall never die.” Eternal life in a new, supernatural body that is impervious to sickness, disease, or death is also part of the offer.
 And just as the best things in this life are shared, so it is in the next. You will be reunited with loved ones and friends to enjoy all of this and much, much more—gifts from your heavenly Father, who the Bible calls the very spirit of love. —Keith Phillips [1] Activated

 Prayer: Dear Jesus, thank You for dying for me for the forgiveness of my sins and for my salvation. Thank You for Your promise of an eternity with You. I invite You into my life and ask You to help me learn to follow Your ways and to love others. Amen
