Im longing for Heaven


Hi there... yes i do recognize that I am almost a stranger.... but i am here now and that's all that matters.... I desperately need to converse with you on the state of our government, but according to Rick Wayne, I will leave that for another show.
It's friday evening and i am truly thankful for the fact that the Lord has brought me through another week. We may not realize this but everyday we are alive, it is because of God and he's wonderful, miraculous powers...
I am far from perfect! In fact, there are times when I do absolutely everything wrong and there are times when i say and think wrong things. I admit it, I am a christian but a far from perfect one. As a christian, i believe that the Saviour Jesus Christ died to redeem us from our sins. As a christian I believe that in order to maintain a close relationship with God, we have to spend time in He's word. Through fervent study of the bible, i believe we attain a connection with our heavenly father. As a christian I believe that there is a need for faith in the relationship with God.
As a christian, i believe that we should always try to preach the gospel in everything we do because according to Paul, faith without works is dead and in Hebrew, a book of the bible, he stated that Faith is the substance of things hoped for and the evidence of things not seen. As a christian i believe that with God, all things are possible.
Now i will admit that as a christian, it is not easy. In fact many times you will falter like i have in many of the choices that i have made but no matter what, i believe that God works. In 1 chronicles 4:10, Jabez simply asked for what he desired and God gave him that which he had requested. Jabez began he's prayer like this "God that you may bless me indeed...." that is what faith is all about my friends and in this case, Jabez had enough faith to ask for what he wanted and expect that God would provide. That is the true kind of faith that all christians should have. I am in desperate need of that kind of unwavering FAITH.
God is never late and if we simply believe in Him and His word, I believe that we would achieve our utmost desires. We simply have to ask and believe without any doubt in our minds that we will truly recieve what we have asked for.
Friends, I am truly longing for heaven. It is truly ridiculous to allow small things in this world to prevent us from going to Heaven. The ten commandments and the entire bible has given us the law as to how we should live. The father sent his only begotten son to die on the cross, i believe that it within us to try our best to follow Christ after all that He has done for us. Friends, i am truly longing for my Heavenly home. This place that has promised to be wonderful because there will be no more pain or sorrow, poverty, hatred, murders and so on. I think whether you are Atheist, Hindu or whatever, there is still this element of hope within, that after death, there is something.
Well friends, that something is Jesus. After death, Jesus Christ has promised us a second coming and He has suggested in He's word that the dead in Christ shall rise first and they will be caught up to meet Him in the air. Friends, I cannot wait for that day. I am truly longing for heaven. I beg of you, do not allow alcohol, gambling, sex, lies, stealing, lusting, covetousness, envy and all of these things to keep you from walking side by side with the Son of God, Jesus Christ of Nazareth.
Friends, I pray that your life will be blessed by the holy touch of God. Until we meet again, goodbye!
