Remembering the End Goal

This is more of an encouragement post for those ministering the gospel.

Hebrews 4:1 "Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us fear lest any of you should seem to have failed to reach it."

I read this verse this morning and the first part reminded me that, in the end, as we diligently persevere we will enter his rest! As I sat on that for awhile, it encouraged me and renewed my heart and mind to know that all that I/we do that is it not in vain and our goal is heaven! Oh how I often think about that, I get so caught up in the now and the doing that I forget what all that is for. That as I strive and move forward, I am getting closer to being with my God, at his feet! Where no more tears, sickness, hate, sin, separation- it all is gone! I will be eternally praising the name of Jesus.

So as you are ministering the gospel as God has entrusted to you, remember that in Heaven waits the spot for you as his loved child. You shall soon enter into his rest. Keep persevering in obedience to His Word!
