It's not just what you say, but, what you do, and it's not just what you do, but what it means, and it's not just what it means now, but what it means eternally. This is what really matters, the long picture of a place we can't know about, yet. One of my favorite books in the New Testament is the Book of Hebrews, because it is a delicious read, full of fantastic mystery. The flavor of the times it tells about, and the essence of what it means to be a follower of Jesus, well, Hebrews just gets that into my soul. I especially love chapter eleven, commonly called the roll call of the faithful, and it is a mountaintop of all writing in scripture, my goodness what an awesome chapter, yet, in reading it many miss my favorite verse, forty: Hebrews Chapter 11:40 "God had planned something better for us so that only together with us would they be made perfect." This to me is who you are, so now, can you see why you'd mean so much to me? Now can you see why chapter eleven, also means a great deal to me? How about you, see the connection?
