BELIEVE

" Lord! we know what we are, but not what we may be.."
William Shakespeare

I think like many we all hold that desire to meet Jesus and ask that all important truth, what did it all mean? where is our place, how do we get there? whats next? But we are here on this earth till its time to be with him, there is no time machine that can take us back to when he walked the earth to meet with him. All the wisdom of his time here is in the bible, our only tool to learn his desires for us and how we should grow in relationship with him. so we believe, we believe in him, and his saving grace and the word of God that strengthens us.

For some this can be difficult, not all of us grew up with a solid foundation in a christian home feed and nurtured with the word of God. Some of us came from our own personal Egypt's , of pain, abuse, addiction and anger. The concept of a loving healing Lord is not something easily learned or believed. That's where faith steps in as we grow in the word. As we learn his plans, to prosper not to hurt us we can finally grow in belief and trust God, building a relationship with him.

Sometimes this revalation comes quickly and sometimes slowly, but as long as we press in, and believe even what we cannot see the growth comes. With two thousand years between the dream and the reality ( and the hope of a time machine not really looking that promising), Jesus still offers us access to him, the God of yesterday, today, and tomorrow and welcomes us wherever and when ever we want. His invitation still stands today: "Come unto me." and when you do, he promises you the time of your life.

QUESTION:
If you could step beyond the bounds of prayer and stand face to face with the Lord to ask or say one thing what would it be?
