While thinking about the joy of dwelling in God’s house, my final resting place, it brought to mind the following song of old:
Sing the wondrous love of Jesus;
Sing His mercy and His grace;
In the mansions bright and blessed
He’ll prepare for us a place.
When we all get to heaven,
what a day of rejoicing that will be!
When we all see Jesus,
we’ll sing and shout the victory!
Although I think about my final restful dwelling home with Jesus, I have to, also, think about what kind of place I am preparing in the present. The Holy Spirit indwells with me here, and I rejoice in that. To maintain a clean dwelling place for Him, I need to:
Stop………to consider the pulling of the conscience
Listen…..and do not ignore His nudging
Choose…to reject missteps
Apply…. His guidance
If I can do this, then I can “sing and shout the victory” in the present.
