Rev 1:3 Blessed is he who reads and those who hear the words
of the prophecy, and heed the
things which are written in it; for
the time is near.
Do you ever wonder if heaven is really ever going to
happen? Our grandparents thought Jesus
would return in their generation, then our parents preached it, and now it’s
our generation, and we have our own kids…and then they have kids.
Will the return ever happen?
This verse says we are blessed if we read about it and heed
(take to heart and obey) the truth, because the time is “near.”
There are days when we get so caught up in this world and all
of its demands on our lives that we forget to even think about heaven and when
we all might go there.
Revelation is a hard book to understand, and we’re not meant
to grasp it all. In fact, we’re meant to
read about heaven, long for it, and expectantly await the mystery of the splendor of it
all to unfold.
I love a good mystery movie, and I love it when I can’t
figure it out, and then at the end I’m surprised. That’s the best kind!
Jesus is coming.
Heaven is for real. We are
blessed if we believe.
