A humbling thought ...

Our former pastor preached last Sunday. He said the following,

The desire of Jesus to have his people with him in heaven is infinitely stronger than his people's desire to to be in heaven with him.

What a humbling, yet tremendous thought. I suspect our desire to be with Jesus in heaven ebbs and flows with the current of life.

Where are you looking?

Turn your eyes upon Jesus, 
Look full in his wonderful face
And the things of earth will grow strangely dim
In the light of his glory and grace.
