john 14:2



Mansions and eternity... and that isn't even the best part!

The best part is this:

And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.

Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?

Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.


"...that where I am, there ye may be also."

There is no better place to be than with my blessed Saviour!


I wonder if Christian is sitting in His lap right now? Or maybe just running around in circles! :)


You can read all of John 14 HERE.

This is so beautiful. Someday when it's your time you'll get to that mansion and Christian will be waiting for you too.

Natalie said...

When I read that verse it makes me so happy inside, not that I'm excited about a mansion but that our God is merciful and always truthful and you know that if He says/does anything, it's right and this makes me happy that I believe and am Christian..He is an Awesome God! Your photo you chose to pair with this scripture is beautiful!

This Scripture is so special and promises us the hope that we so need in our daily living. To know that not only will we have eternal life with Jesus, but that He also prepares a place for us, is amazing and overwhelming. My mind can hardly take it in!!

I'm sure Christian is doing both - sitting on the lap of Jesus as well as running around!! It's just a very happy picture, isn't it?!

Much love to you, dear Marsha!!

Love, Julie

Praise God. He is coming back for us. It is awesome to know that right now, this very second, He is preparing a place for us.
