It is because of our LORD God that His Elect can persevere by His Grace, Mercy, and Faith!
What an awesome GOD we serve! The Apostle Paul said it this way in Romans 8:18-27, "I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us! The creation itself will be liberated from its bondage of decay and brought into the glorious freedom of the children of GOD! We groan as we await the adoption and the redemption of our bodies. All of creation groans to be brought into the glorious freedom of the children of GOD!!!" Total liberation of not just GOD's Elect, but also of the animal kingdom and plant kingdom, the very earth, heavens and universe itself! (Revelation chapters 21-22, Isaiah 11:6-9, Isaiah 65:6-25) The beauty we see on this earth is but a foretaste of what we have awaiting us! Those of us who know the salvation of Jesus Christ have the Holy Spirit in us assuring the truth of GOD's WORD in our hearts! It is unfathomable to even think with our now limited brains, the size of The City! It is 1500 miles long, 1500 miles wide, and 1500 miles HIGH! The space shuttle was up only 200 miles high! I should say, "A New Earth" indeed is talked about in Revelation! But...when we see the face of our Awesome, Almighty, Creator, Savior, Holy Father GOD; nothing else can compare! Revelation 21:3-5, "Now the dwelling of GOD is with man and He will live with them. They will be His people and GOD Himself will be with them and be their GOD. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death, mourning, crying or pain; for the old order of things has passed away; everything has been made new!" What an inheritance! GOD's grace gives us the faith of this blessed hope!

HI Susan,
So true that we have so much awaiting us and to look forward to when we leave this earth, we don't
need a bucket list......because
there is nothing down here than can ever compare to what the Lord has
for His children.
Like your new blog face.
Have a good day,
Love ya, Nellie
