Before we met, Joe lived in Italy for a
couple years. It was an amazing experience for him to live in Rome with so much
history! He talked about it a lot. It was hard for me to understand all that he
talked about, since I hadn’t been there, much less lived there. However, we had
an opportunity to go to Italy and France our second year of marriage. Joe was
excited to show me where he had lived, what he had seen, and who he had met!
We usually don’t want to keep our amazing
experiences a secret, but want to share them with others, especially those we
love. Jesus has the same desire! He wants us to join Him in Heaven and experience
all the blessings of knowing His full character and creation as it was
intended.
John 17:24-26 “Father, I want those you
have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have
given me because you loved me before the creation of the world. 25 “Righteous
Father, though the world does not know you, I know you, and they know that you
have sent me. 26 I have made you known to them, and will
continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in
them and that I myself may be in them.”
Oneness with and nearness to the perfect and
righteous Father in Heaven is the greatest experience anyone will ever have!
Jesus wants to share that experience with you and me for all eternity! Will you
be joining Jesus for this forever marvelous experience? If so, who will you
pray for today about joining you and Jesus?
