Devotions from Judy’s heart
  As we get older, I hear people saying, “I can’t do all the things I use to do! My body is wearing out!” Our bodies do give out as we age and just recently, we have lost two men from our congregation who have been gradually declining and now are home with the Lord. But one day all of us who know the Lord will receive new bodies that will never wear out. Like it says in Phil. 3:20-21, “But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body to be like His glorious body, by the power that enables Him even to subject all things to Himself.” One day we will give up our earthly tent for our heavenly home. We can’t even imagine what that will be like.as we exchange our tent for a mansion in glory! If we are living when Jesus comes again, it will happen in the flicker of the eye, for we will be transformed into our glorious eternal bodies.

  We can live securely now for we can depend on God to do what He has promised. I was reading from Psalm 125 and “Those who trust in God are like Zion Mountain: Nothing can move it, a rock-solid mountain you can always depend on.” We can rest assuredly like that mountain for we are in a safe place, which is like a fortress surrounded by the Lord. He is our safe place and ready to always always help us.

  When we have doubts and anxious feelings, we need to grab hold of the promises we have been given. We are not to live by our feelings for they are up and down but to find our security in the Lord who doesn’t change. Even when we have pain and troubles, may it not destroy our confidence in the Lord who will never give us more than we can handle with His help.\
 
  Let us rest secure, protected as if by the mountains that can’t be moved by our circumstances, but trusting His protecting hand until the day we are ushered home to glory and receive our eternal bodies.
  Challenge for today: Spend some time thanking the Lord for how He is preparing you for an eternity with Him.
Blessings on your day and prayers and love, Judy
