I remember taking a drive through the area of Renfro Valley, KY. I love the area. It was the Grand Old Opry before it ever existed. You can still go there and hear good bluegrass music, shopping and best of all you can eat at Gene’s. I recommend the cornbread salad on the salad bar (the only bar I go to).
As my wife and I drove around the area looking for the place we were staying we noticed a few nice homes. There were some homes that you wondered if anyone really lived there. I am assured by a good friend that they are in deed inhabited by human beings. Wow!
There is another truth I am looking forward to. The truth that He knows my name because He gives me a new place to live. Look at John 14:1-3, “Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. 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. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.” Some of the newer “versions” say He goes to prepare for us an apartment. Wrong! He is preparing a mansion and all of Heaven for us.
He love you and I so much that He has prepared mansions in Heaven for us when we depart this valley of tears we will abide in them in Heaven. If you know Jesus Christ as your Saviour then you can look forward to a mansion in Heaven too. He assures us that He has gone to prepare a place for us. He knows my name because He has prepared a new place for me to live.
So, how are you doing?
