John 12:25 “Anyone who loves this life will lose it, while anyone who hates their life in this world will keep it for eternal life.” In the 1500’s Martin Luther wrote a song expressing the thought—I’m but a stranger here, Heaven is my home. Every Christian realizes that same thought. Though life on this earth is intended to be lived in honor to our Heavenly Father life is so short and full of troubles. Our life in eternity is so long with wonders beyond our imagination. Heaven really is our Home. Have a great weekend.

John 11:28m “…’The Teacher is here…'” Martha and Mary knew who Jesus was—The Teacher. You and I also enjoy knowing The Teacher. Now, the question is: Are you and I the learner? What a privilege to be a student of The Greatest Teacher–The Son of God.

John 11:25-26a “Jesus said to her,’I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die…” Jesus never lied. It is impossible for Jesus to be anything other than perfect. When Jesus says you and I will live forever, he is only being true to character and speaking truth. You and I should never fear death as death is our gateway to our wonderful eternity.

John 11:17 “On his arrival, Jesus found that Lazarus had already been in the tomb for four days.” Dead–not sick or in a coma–dead. Then Jesus did nothing more than speak and Lazarus came to life. Who else has that power over life and death other than Jesus, the Son of God? Applying that thought to your life—aren’t you so glad to be loved and cared for by that same Jesus? That Jesus who has power over your life and who invites you to live with him forever? Could we have a greater honor than to live with our Savior?

John 10:27-28 “My sheep listen to my voice; I know them, and they follow me. I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; no one will snatch them out of my hand.” Being an adopted and loved child of God gives you and me security found no where else.We all experience trials, heartaches, life’s difficulties and pains which come with simply living life, yet through all of life we rest in the comfort of resting in our Savior’s arms. We are very greatful.
