100 Days of Scriptures of Encouragement: Day 52

John 14:1-4

“Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. 2 In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.[b] 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. 4 And where I go you know, and the way you know.”

Everyone has a favorite scripture and these scriptures used to be my grandfather's favorite. He quoted it often and then tell me about what His place looked like and where it maybe located.

I don't care. All I want is for the rapture to come to take me and my family and the other people God has sent across my path away. Maybe when we get there, we can go together and inspect my grandfather's mansion but I have a feeling, my first stop after seeing the family that has gone before me is for me to face my Savior and King.

If that wasn't enough, I may be too busy bowing at Jesus feet chanting along side the angels. Whatever the case may be, I will have eternity to find the special place Jesus made for me and my grandfather because He's a carpenter who loved enough to die and then rise and then return just for me!

God Bless.
