Grace for your spirit April 29, 2013

Grace for your spirit
Therefore, since we receive a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us show gratitude, by which we may offer to God an acceptable service with reverence and awe.   Hebrew 12:28

None of us can earn a place in the kingdom of Jesus Christ.  We don't show gratitude and service to get a place, we show it as a result of already having the inheritance. Our inheritance is not like an earthly inheritance subject to fluctuation.  Ours is established in eternity and guaranteed to be there for us.  How happy we should be.  We are never behind, never playing catchup, and never disappointed at the end of the day. That kind of optimistic future has the potential to make us  great servants.  Let's obey the gospel and be just that.
