If [you] are [a Christian] … you should feel secure and honored that God loves you so much! That knowledge is a joy and a privilege. No one can ever take that from you because no one can ever take you from God!
We are not perfect in ourselves, but in Him we are. In the red circle of this world, there is no hope. However, because you’re living in the purple wedge, there is always His hope, power, and joy.
Remember, as a believer, you are already in God’s kingdom, even if you are still standing on this earth.
For believers, there is much more to existence than simply passing out of one world and into another.
If, in Him all things hold together, why would anyone ever want to be apart from Him?
If you are a Christian, especially if you are unhappy or frustrated, remind yourself frequently of the purple wedge in which you live.
Personally, I’m choosing to dwell upon the glory of the kingdom of which I am a part, even though I’m still a witness and sometimes a victim of the junk in ‘this’ world.
If there is a ‘this world,’ there must be a ‘that world!’ There must be another world!
We are stuck on the obvious of this world, and it so fills our minds and our beings that there is little room for anything else, even if that “obvious” is merely a small part of what is real.
The best times we’ve had on earth are usually with those we love.
