We believe this life is not all there is. The grave is not the end. Christ's resurrection is the promise and the proof. What was sown in sorrow will be raised in glory; what is given to Him is not lost. Every soul will be raised to stand before God in naked honesty, and every tear and smile will be accounted for. What form that accounting will take, and what glories await, we leave to God, who is faithful and who keeps His promises. We find hope in God's word that declares we were made to fellowship with Him in His glory. Christ has spoken. Christ is trustworthy. This is enough for us.
What do you most fear about standing before God in naked honesty? What do you most hope for?
