Do you ever wonder? I mean…about…God’s love…how could He…love me? Is it really true? Yes! I know it is! But I don’t understand it. But Yes! I do understand it! But How could He really love me? I know what I am like. I know how many times in my life that I have broken His commandments… too numerous to mention!!! But I do know He loves me and I am in awe of that.

What will it be like when I stand before Him? When I look into the face of God? Will I tremble? Will I fall down on my face before Him because I cannot look upon Him knowing how many times I defied Him and went my own way. What will He look like? Will He be a fiery glow with lightening flashing and thunder roaring around me? Will I melt before Him? Will I be able to talk? Will I stutter and stumble searching for words to say?

While I am on this earth, I find it easy to pray and talk to Him. I know and believe that He loves me and that it is by grace that I am accepted in the beloved and have access to His throne room. But this morning I was just thinking about how awesome it will be when I behold Him in person and stand before Him personally…Right before Him…eye to eye, so to speak. How would it be?

Forgiven, the past completely forgotten, the sin nature gone, a new resurrection body, rejoicing and praising my Lord for His sacrifice that got me there, enjoying every moment of eternity and 200 million years later, I will still be rejoicing and singing God’s praises being thankful for all that He has done for me!
