Sitting at His Feet

Last night my sweet Grandma got to head home to sit at the feet of her Savior! What a joy to know she is praising him with all the saints! As hard as it is to lose her, I have such a peace knowing she has been healed! Her heavenly Father has wrapped His arms around her and carried her home.

"To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb be praise and honor and glory and power, for ever and ever!" -Revelation 5:13

"Amen! Praise and glory and wisdom and thanks and honor and power and strength be to our God for ever and ever. Amen!" -Revelation 7:12

"Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from him." -Psalm 62:5

"May your unfailing love be my comfort, according to your promise to you servant. Let your compassion come to me that I may live, for your law is my delight." -Psalm 119:76-77

"Brothers, we do not want you to be ignorant about those who fall asleep, or to grieve like the rest of men, who have no hope. We believe that Jesus died and rose again and so we believe that God will bring with Jesus those who have fallen asleep in him. According to the Lord's own word, we tell you that we who are still alive, who are left till the coming of the Lord, will certainly not precede those who have fallen asleep. For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever." -1 Thessalonians 4:13-17

What a great picture! We will be reunited again because Jesus has saved us! And we will praise His name forever!
