FROM TODAY'S READING (3/11/2014)...
NOTE - Twelve particular Bible passages are presently being featured. Their significance will be revealed in the twelfth devotion in this series.
Suppose God took you on a crystal ball trip into your future and you saw with indubitable certainty that despite everything—your sin, your smallness, your stupidity—you could have free for the asking your whole crazy heart's deepest desire: heaven, eternal joy. Would you not return fearless and singing? What can earth do to you, if you are guaranteed heaven? To fear the worst earthly loss would be like a millionaire fearing the loss of a penny—less, a scratch on a penny.
- Tullian Tchividjian, Glorious Ruin (David C. Cook, 2012), page 175
#4: 1 John 3:2 (NLT) Dear friends, we are already God’s children, but he has not yet shown us what we will be like when Christ appears. But we do know that we will be like him, for we will see him as he really is.
