As He Really Is
(1 John 3:2) Dear friends, we are already God’s children, but he has not yet shown us what we will be like when Christ appears. But we do know that we will be like him, for we will see him as he really is.

Wrap your mind around this part of the Lord’s Prayer: ‘…your will be done, on earth as it is in Heaven.’ We are living out the process of what already is established for us in God’s Kingdom. Again – we are living out the process of what already is done Heaven. Now, if God establishes something – it is so, and it is complete – done. And since we are to live out the process of what already is, then it goes to say that this process journey is equipping us to realize how our Father is working in our lives so that when Jesus returns for us, we’ll be ready to go! We’ll be ready because we will have been living out this process with Him – in His company – all along the way. Therefore, I ask you these questions: Are you being who you really are, or are you mimicking a character of the world? Will Jesus recognize you when He returns? We have no idea what we will be like when we finally get to live in Eternity. However, until that time comes we can follow Jesus and be our original selves right now because when He returns, He’s coming back…just as He really is.
