Philippians 3:20 (NIV)
20 But our citizenship is in heaven. And we
eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ,
If you are moving to a new home, you want to know all about
the community to which you are going. And since we will spend eternity some
place, we ought to know something about it. The information concerning heaven
is found in the Bible. When we talk about heaven, earth grows shabby by
comparison. Our sorrows and problems here seem so much less, when we have keen
anticipation of the future.
In a certain sense the Christian has heaven here on earth.
He has peace of soul, peace of conscience, and peace with God. In the midst of
troubles and difficulties he can smile. He has a spring in his step, a joy in
his soul, a smile on his face. But the Bible also promises the Christian a
heaven in the life hereafter.
Thought for today:
Are my plans for “retirement” heavenly focused?
