I’ve just spend 17 hours working. All day long I had the luxury of spending quality time with the Lord Jesus. By the time I parked my truck I was excited to jump on the internet and see how everyone was doing. I looked at my blog to see if anyone had parked their mouse over my gem. A few had dropped by. But they left no comments. I checked the email to see what might be there. I think I caught the butt end of an electronic spider leaving the screen. But that was all the activity I could detect. I went to God Rev and looked around a bit. I found a few things of interest there that I’ll check out later. And, finally, I clicked on face book to see what people were doing all day.
I gotta tell ya people, it’s such a let down to see such dribble come from humans. I don’t mean to run folks down. But having spent such a long time with the God of truth, then to listen to what people think is important, wow! What a radical difference. How will it be come the day of judgment when God examines every idle word we have spoken and judges us by them? We thought we had a handle on what’s important. How shocking it will be for the vast majority.
I’ve got my own troubles with holiness. I’m not a saint, as some consider saints. But I know where I’m going on that day. How about you? I mean, I don’t just believe (as hope believes) that I am saved. The God who made me has confirmed it in my soul. How about you? When I think of my death, there’s an attitude of excitement. To me, it’s a doorway into the presence of the One I love. What about you?
I don’t judge you folks. Frankly it wouldn’t matter a gnat’s nostril if I did. But I can tell you a truth. What most people think is important will surely follow them to the throne of God. Be warned. It will not go well with most folks. I had so much joy I wanted to share. But there was no one talking about the Lord. I guess if I looked around a bit I might find the name Jesus being used. But I’m afraid it wouldn’t be the Mighty Lord of Creation they were speaking about.
By His Grace.
