Welcome Home

I've been gone most of the week to a trade show/work shop/conference. I am glad to be home. I missed my family very much. I missed church. I missed work. I missed the football team I help coach. When you are apart, there are just a lot of things that you miss.

On the flip side, once you have been away, there is nothing like the homecoming. Trish was glad to see me home. The kids were ecstatic to see me; they even made me "Welcome Home" signs. It seemed that I was missed at work. And, the football team, coaches and players, were glad to see me last night. It is nice to be welcomed home.

Today's word is Matthew 25:21, NKJV, which reads, "His lord said to him, 'Well done, good and faithful servant: you were faithful over a few things,I will make you ruler over many things. Enter into the joy of your lord.'"

As good as the homecoming was yesterday, and it was special, there will be another homecoming for us, Christian, one day. We will stand before our LORD and He will welcome us home. My prayer is that I am found faithful, like the servant in today's passage. I want to hear GOD tell me that I have been faithful, and to come on in.

We will have a homecoming one day. We will all stand before GOD and give an account. We will all hear Him say either, "Enter in," or "Depart from Me, for I never knew you." I am glad I have made the decision to follow JESUS. I pray that, if you haven't, that you will, too. Because, there are few things better than hearing, "Welcome Home"!

Be Blessed,
