If Jesus Christ comes to get His people today, will I be excited and full of joy?
Or will I be full of shame that I was caught in a bad shape?
Or will I be full of shame that I was caught in a bad shape?
The Bible says, "And now, little children, abide in Him, that when He appears, we may have confidence and not be ashamed before Him at His coming." (1 John 2:28)
The key action point in this verse is "abide in him". 'Abiding' simply means 'remaining'. God wants me to remain grounded and immersed in Him and in His Word--His 'love boundaries' and protective commandments.
This reminds me of Psalm 91:1 which says, "He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will rest in the shadow of the Almighty."
He who remains in the Lord will find no shame when He returns, but will find rest and joy.
