I am staying in a homeless shelter and down to my last buck, but praise God I am a Christian. The eternal weight of glory is mine. Will I be rewarded or just make it through the fire, I don't know, but thank you Jesus I am going to glory. I don't have to be an Apostle as long as I am not an apostate.
I realized something very interesting which I have been reading in Romans for some 30 years now. My flesh hates God. I might as well say I, but that would not be accurate. My flesh hates God, my natural mind is at enmity with God. Every fiber in my flesh hates the Spirit of God. Thanks be to God for our Lord Jesus Christ and His mercy and grace. My flesh wants glory, my flesh wants to be satisfied and run my life, I am in sore need of Gods grace. I think we give lip service to the I want to be crucified with Christ scripture, crucifixion hurts a lot. Most Christians if you said you can have your ministry and the full knowledge of God if you actually get crucified would pass. But this is what the LORD is asking, death of the flesh, no glory, no input, nothing.
What will happen to me? I have no idea. I know God will somehow provide for me and lead me to Heaven in Christ Jesus, but how I don't know. May God give me peace in the meantime and allow me to glorify His name.
