1 Maccabees 6:1-13; Psalm 9; Luke 20:27-40

A place for you

When I meet someone who doesn’t believe in life after death, it starts me thinking! I remember the promise of Jesus, “I have prepared a place for you.” And I think of a place where everyone is happy – perfectly! – and equal, and all needs are met, and all peoples are together. No frictions, no tears, no sadness! Human words don’t do heaven justice, but it’s where I am headed! And my efforts to get there just might influence others to travel in the same direction. What will that mean for me today?
