I must first give credit to my 11 year old granddaughter, Alex, who designed the banner header for this page, when she was 9,in Photoshop and even put it on the page in Dreamweaver. That figure with the black hair in the lower left of the banner is her.
Jesus is going to return with power and glory. He is the King. He owns the planet and everything on it. He is the Creator of all mankind and everything else. We who are part of Him will be changed into whatever He is because no one in this age has seen Him as He really is. Right now we are weak, flesh creatures which are dying. One day we will rise full of power and be with the One we have waited all our lives to be with. Forever.
Actually this is the Kingdom of God in which we will be living; our true Home. It is the clear horizon we fly into….on the wings of God. Here is where our hearts soar and our spirits are free. It is here we know the meaning of being truly alive…no longer contained by the 4 layer bio-body suit.
Can we experience this now? To a degree I think God will allow us a taste of what is to come. Even in Paul’s letter to the Corinthians (Cor.12:13), he says: “Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part, then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.” Sometimes I get teensie, weensie glimmers of it. It takes my mind to realms that are fantastic and just fills me with a lot of wows! But it is only for a split second. I would love, as all other Christians would, to see what the Apostle Paul saw or John. But you only get that kind of vision when God has something way, way out of the ordinary for you to do.
You have no idea what it is like to be in His Kingdom that is so endless that it goes on for eternity. To be truly alive as He is alive and to experience an eternal existence that defies all the combined imaginations of man. It is freedom as you have never known it. There is no bad, no evil. Just all pure goodness and love. People erroneously think that you cannot have all good. That there has to be some kind of balance and therefore need the bad. Well...they're on crack! They don't know God or His Kingdom which is eternal and goes on forever. We will be doing fantastic things, wonderful things with our God. We won't even remember this time here, because it won't mean anything in comparison.
I think I will not only be speechless but know the answer to the question: “What did God do before He created all this?”
