When Christ, who is your life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.

Colossians 3:4

I place myself in a different setting than these believers in the Greek city of Colossae.  I am a modern believer.  Amazing, our hearts and hopes are the same.

As a believer I, too, believe that my life is in the hands of God, forever.  How it will all work out, I am not all that clear, except that it will be glorious.

This morning I am impressed with the fact that all believers, no matter what century, what culture, what denomination, will praise the Lord for including us in that great gathering when all of us believers, all, will share the same delight when we will all see our risen Jesus in glory, now being gathered in some marvelous way, to himself, forever!   

The longer I live the more I am finding great comfort in knowing that I am like all the saints of Jesus who ever lived.  All human or historical conditions fade, and Jesus Christ is known and seen as the One and Only Lord, forever!

I praise God with all my heart, again and again!
