“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
What a wondrous thought!
Jesus is now busied in Heaven in His people’s behalf! He can find no abode in all His wide dominions, befitting as a permanent dwelling for His ransomed ones.
He says, “I will make a new heavens and a new earth. I will found a special kingdom. I will rear eternal mansions expressly for those I have redeemed with my blood!”
Orphaned pilgrims, dry your tears! Soon the sighs of a groaning and burdened creation will be heard no more. Soon He will come again, to receive those who followed Him in His cross, to be everlasting partakers with Him in His crown!
“For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain!” Philippians 1:21
“I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far!” Philippians 1:23

(J.R. Miller, “Help for the Day”)
HELP FOR THE DAY!
“He heals the broken-hearted and binds up their wounds!” Psalm 147:3
The God of the Scriptures, is the God of the broken-hearted.
God cares. The broken-heartedness of His people attracts Him. The lament of grief on earth, draws Him down from Heaven!
“The LORD is near to the broken-hearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” Psalm 34:18
“He has sent Me to heal the broken-hearted” Luke 4:18
Lord, thank You for Your help for the day!
