ONE DAY
EVERYTHING
will be like it was created to be~
PERFECT PARADISE
in
THE PERFECT GARDEN,
without a crafty little snake
tempting an innocent woman
to eat an apple,
who then
tempts
an innocent man
to eat an apple.
Because
IT IS FINISHED!
ONE DAY
there will be no
TEMPTER
to TEMPT you
to wander off the path
that GOD has created for you.
But since we LIVE in the here & now,
how do we
LIVE AS IF WE ARE ALREADY LIVING THERE?
We EXCHANGE~
Anxiety for PEACE.
Bitterness for FORGIVENESS.
Un~favor for FAVOR.
Fear for LAUGHTER,
a greater LAUGHTER
that starts in your heart,
making your belly shake so hard
that you just have to dance.
For when you and I
LIVE our SECONDS
IN JESUS
we are covered with a
PERFECT LOVE,
PERFECT PEACE,
PERFECT HOPE,
and a
PERFECT JOY
no matter how
IMPERFECT the SECOND appears to be.
Oh the sweet spot of
LIVING IN JESUS,
is
LIVING IN PARADISE
in the
HERE & NOW.
Because it is like the world stops and there is no else around
but you and HIM
TO TRUST so deeply that the supernatural happens~
"May the GOD of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in HIM,
so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the HOLY SPIRIT" (Romans 15:13).
Oh how JESUS makes every SECOND
the best SECOND
and all you have to do is~
"Keep your eyes on JESUS,
who both began and finished this race we’re in.
Study how HE did it.
Because HE never lost sight of where HE was headed—
that exhilarating finish in and with GOD—
HE could put up with anything along the way:
Cross, shame, whatever.
And now HE'S there, in the place of honor, right alongside GOD.
When you find yourselves flagging in your faith, go over that story again, item by item,
that long litany of hostility HE plowed through.
That will shoot adrenaline into your souls!"
(Hebrews 12:2-3).
And to think that
ONE DAY,
just because JESUS sacrificed HIS life for you and I,
LIFE WILL BE PERFECT EVERY SECOND~
"HE will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there will no longer be death; there will no longer be sorrow and anguish, or crying, or pain; for the former order of things has passed away" (Revelation 21:4).

Therefore,
LIVE TODAY IN JESUS,
the REALITY of your FOREVER PARADISE,
because
GOD PROMISES
that
"ONE DAY"
