Are my readers, as am I, looking forward to that time, which we will see and experience when, as Cece Winans sings in the linked song, we , who believe that God, in the Person of His Son, Jesus, will return to show and share with us ALL …the goodness of God.  Maybe today!  Are you ready?  I sure am!!                          

My THANKFULNESS: ... Oh, Abba Father, thank You, King Jesus, … for reminding me of Your promises to bring me to share in Your eternal glory.   

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... . I’m praying that those who read with me here will join me today to praise You, Lord, for Your promises of Your glory and kIngdom to come.    Amen
