2 Corinthians 5 : 1-8
1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved,
we have a building of God,
an house not made with hands,
eternal in the heavens.
2 For in this we groan,
earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:
3 If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.
4 For we that are in this tabernacle do groan,
being burdened:
not for that we would be unclothed,
but clothed upon,
that mortality might be swallowed up of life.
5 Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God,
who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit.
6 Therefore we are always confident,
knowing that,
whilst we are at home in the body,
we are absent from the Lord:
7 ( For we walk by faith, not by sight: )
8 We are confident, I say,
and willing rather to be absent from the body,
and to be present with the Lord.
Today's Prayer...
Dear Father in heaven,
Open our hearts to see and feel how our lives have been blest.
Open our hearts to your blessings so that we may look forward
in thankfulness and joy to what lies ahead.
Grant that we may be faithful to what we have received from you
and never again lose ourselves in the passing moment.
May we hold to all you have brought to our hearts from eternity,
that your name may be honored and our lives shaped anew in Jesus Christ.
Give us courage to overcome the evils in life and to look with
joy and confident expectation to the future,
when the powers of your kingdom will be ever more clearly revealed.
In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name
Amen
