The privilege of His presence

 

  Work out your own salvation with fear and trembling: for it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure

        Phil. 2:12, 13

It is not your business and mine to study whether we shall get to Heaven, or even to study whether we shall be good men; it is our business to study how we shall come into the midst of the purposes of God and have the unspeakable privilege in these few years of doing something of His work.

Our existence is short in this life. In the time we have on this earth we should not spend too much time worrying about whether we are going to heaven or whether we are good. We are sinners one and all. Rather, we should strive to do what is right and pleasing to God for the privilege of His presence with us. His presence with us is all that matters. It is the pleasure of His good grace that saves us and grants us entrance to heaven. 

May the good Lord bless and Keep you safe.
