Who



I used to think life was about reaching this milestone or accomplishing that particular goal.

But I have become increasingly convinced that life is less about where I am going or what I am doing, and much, much more about WHO I am with on this journey.

I believe Jesus talked considerably more about being with Him (John 15-17) and Him being with us, than the specific things for us to accomplish before He takes us out of here.

I am not saying that we shouldn't be active, faithful, proactive stewards for our God, but let us not forget...

Who has called us...

Who chose us...

Who died to redeem us...

Who has justified us...

Who is sanctifying us...

Who promises us rest, peace, joy...

Let us not lose sight of Him. (Hebrews 12:2)

This journey is not a destination, it is about a Person - Jesus Christ.

  1. Amen!! I heard a sermon recently on "Embracing the Constraining Love of Christ," in which the pastor said that nothing should be done except for and through the love of our Savior. HE is where are desires and aspirations should be centered!
