We sang a hymn in church this morning that struck me emotionally quite hard. There was a line in that old song referring to the time we will meet Jesus face to face. As unworthy as I am He has promised that I will see Him in all His glory in heaven one day.
Just the thought of such an encounter with our Lord choked me up; I was unable to finish the song first off because no sound would come out and secondly because I couldn’t see the words with my tear blurred vision.
What a wonder filled experience that will be, to actually be in the presence of Jesus. It is difficult for my human mind to comprehend what a wonderful encounter that will be.
I don’t know what I will say to Jesus when I see Him. I hope He has something wonderful to say to me. I want my first statement to be a thank you for the salvation He has provided His servant. I would like to acknowledge the pain He must have felt on the cross. Such abuse He endured for my sake.
I think I would like thank Him for the scriptures. Through these wonderful words we get to know Jesus and the love that He and The Father has for each of us.
I would like to thank and praise Him but then if a simple song can choke me up what will the real experience do?
