NO IMPROVEMENTS NEEDED

“Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.  In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you.  I go to prepare a place for you.  And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.”
John 14:1- 3 KJV

Someone said “We need to make some improvements on our house but we don’t have the money to make them”.  Jesus Himself has decorated our mansions for us and they are perfect.  No improvements will be needed because Jesus has decorated them with unconditional love and joy and peace.

Jesus is perfect so everything He does is perfect.  When He gives us a new heart, it is pleasing to God but sometimes we allow jealousy, anger, resentment, bitterness and unforgiveness to stay in our heart and we have to repent and tell God that we’re sorry and ask Him to forgive us for hurting Him.

God loves us so much that He will forgive us when we sin and hurt Him.  We read in the Bible.  “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.  If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us” (1 John 1:9, 10).

Heavenly Father, forgive us for allowing things to stay in our heart that hurt You.  Jesus, thank You for preparing a place for us and for decorating it with unconditional love, peace, joy and happiness.  The greatest thing about going to Heaven is that we will be with You for all eternity.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
