We as humans are gifted with the fact that we are so short sighted and are seldom not in awe when things happen to us that may be out of the ordinary routine, whether for good or bad. Blind sided though we are we also demonstrate remarkable resiliance. I am part of that resiliance and am here to help, through my writings and through discussions with the reader. So sit back, buckle your seat belts, and enjoy the ride.

There are No Jews, no Greeks, etc... Part 25
God created a place for me, for the person sitting next to me, for my neighbor. It is not only Heaven, which that indeed is true for He plans on returning those that believe to Himself, but also Heaven on earth. He wants us to learn here, to love here, to be unified to Him here, to be obedient here, and if we are, then we know what it will be like being able to look Him in the eye and then to humbly bow before Him and say, “Not my will but thine”. Daniel 7:13-28 describes this perfectly, a kingdom of power and peace that in my present state I know I would fall short, but because of Christ’s sacrifice and God’s grace I have an access. I can go boldly before His throne. And at the same time I know that God sits in mercy and judgment, for He is all things. But prior to this place, as outlined in Daniel 12:1-13, the Lord will come to sow peace and to take those home with Him that have been obedient servants to God. Daniel was not to breathe a word of this. Why? So that all things would be completed in His time, not ours. The bible is a completed work, and it is complete because of God and because of Christ, not because we need it, but because it is fulfilled. The hope is come, the peace, the wonderful counselor is here!
