Work in Progress
John 14:2 In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
This blows my mind. God, who made the universe and all we know to be in six days, seems to according to this text, still be at work on our resurrected bodies. There is no need for a physical mansion, He is talking about our bodies here. Wow! To think of the design and thought our LORD has been putting into this project for us? He obviously went back to heaven 2000 yrs ago and still preparing a place for us. My mind cant fathom this project. The longest running project known to man was the great wall of china. It spanned over many dynasties to 2000 years as well. Its not even a functional structure and only serves as a symbolic protection. Which would I rather take part in?
Anything God does is perfect and I want. When He says its time, He will come back for us and sometime soon after we will get this new body. I cant wait.
