Ah life. Life is like a staircase for a christian. You start out small, with the first step, but its a big first step. Then every step gets you closer and closer, higher and higher. Then, when your time has come and God calls you home, you have reached the destination of the staircase. What a comfort to know that every Christian has their own staircase, with different stairs and different numbers. How reassuring it is to know, that no Christian will die without reaching the top of their stairs. My steps are numbered, I don't know how high or low I am, but I know that God has labeled each step and that he will be the railing that holds me in place.
Today I read, "God in heaven appoints each person's work (persons who belong to Jesus!)" (Jn 3: 27) Good thoughts, Naomi. Let's be good and faithful slaves until our 'steps' are finished!
