Bible Note: Greetings Rose of Sharon! :-) Thank you for your comments and encouragement! I am aware that Christians may very well be rewarded above for things that we have done here on earth, even though it may be thought that being admitted into heaven is really enough of a reward in itself! I am not expecting a "huge reward", nor is it my aim, nor do I think that I will be rewarded out of my time here at this Forum. But what I do know is, is that I do what I do because I am motivated from something that, to me, is much better than being motivated by expectation of reward. I do not know and choose not to know what kind of reward I will get when I am allowed to enter into His Majesty's Holy gates.. Just entrance into His paradise alone is really enough for me. I myself would gladly be the doorstop into heaven, and be satisfied, really, simply because I was given the grace just to be there. And that is really all that counts, just to be in the presence of my Lord and be in His courts forever. That alone is my dream, as we all look forward to His coming. But Blessings to you all the same! :-) I pray the the Lord continues to use you in your life and through the internet.. Makarios |
