A bedroom off the Throne Room?
What is Jesus busy doing these days?
Well, for one thing, He’s getting God’s house ready for us!
If we really thought about the following passage, it should blow our minds:
“There is more than enough room in my Father’s home. If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you? When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am,” John 14:2-3.
Jesus isn’t constructing a little room out back for us. He’s not putting in an air mattress in a cluttered, multi-purpose guest room. God’s home has a lot of room, and He’s preparing a special place for us so that we can always be with Him.
What kind of space are you making for Him in the meantime?
A little corner in the garage?
Somewhere out back behind the dog house?
Or does He dwell in the center of your life? In the midst of your greatest desires and wants? In the front of your thoughts and the whole of your heart?
Or have you left Him outside with occasional visitations?
If you want a warm welcome into God’s home, start by giving Him one in your own.
