The things that we learn in life should be treasured. I love the word treasured, it explains a deep emotion about something, and I guess its how I see God and what we are to him. We are treasured by God. And those who treasure God back will be able to spend every glorious moment at his side in this life spiritually and in heaven. I think about how people don't actually realise what hell is and how we are spiritual beings in a physical temporary body. They think this life is all we are planned for to live and die..doesn't Paul say in Phil 1:21-23...
"to live is Christ, but to die is gain"
...meaning that on earth we live for Christ but to die is a greater gain meaning that death is really only the beginning, and only the end to our bodies for we will be given new bodies after death. I sit and wonder what life will be like after death..we can only imagine really and I hope people will realise what hell really is...an eternity of torment and pain. We need to realise that what we cant see now is part of our future. Christians need to wake up for if I could stop one soul from entering hell's gates its worth everything...
I had a conversation with a friend about why we cant see hell and heaven and the spiritual realm including God. So why did God do this? it did get me thinking I mean yes its a faith journey and its about believing first and not seeing first, but I think that as humans we probably wouldn't be able to handle seeing everything. Imagine being able to see people being tortured for eternity in hell and not being able to do anything, and also imagine seeing heaven and eternal glory and perfection and not being able to touch it. There is a time for everything God says, our time on earth is now and we should live today with the future in mind and the past behind us. Living for God and running the race for Him, so that when the perseverance and wait is over, God will truly show us how much he treasures us!
So this is my journey now, trying to fight back my emotions to save the people around me who are crying out spiritually to be saved from the pits of destruction. as harsh as that sounds its true. But I struggle with putting me out of the picture and what I want. But i do know that while doing God's will your dreams will be fulfilled by him in time.
Its just begun raining while iv been typing this.I love rain, God reminds me when it rains that something new is happening or about too, its so refreshing and keeps me on the positive side of life when rubbish is happening around me. Il leave you with the lyrics of a song that I absolutely love..
"open the eyes of my heart lord
open the eyes of my heart..I want to see you..I want to see you..
to see you high and lifted up..."
