Shoutout @hellolaurabeth for taking the first five pics!! These are some of my favorite of the past two years!  Also I wanted to share something that’s amazing!! ————————————————————————“And this is eternal life, that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent.” John 17:3 —————————————————The truth that the Lord said reminds me of this book I’ve been wanting to read by Pastor John Piper.  It’s titled “God is the Gospel”.————————-————————————————————————He prefaces the book with this statement: “This book is a plea that God himself, as revealed most clearly and fully in Jesus’s death and resurrection, be seen and enjoyed as the final and greatest gift of the gospel.

The gospel of Jesus and his many precious blessings are not ultimately what makes the good news good, but means of seeing and savoring the Savior himself. Forgiveness is good because it opens the way to enjoying God himself. Justification is good because it wins access to the presence and pleasure of God himself. Eternal life is good because it becomes the everlasting enjoyment of Jesus.

All God’s good gifts are loving to the degree that they lead us to God himself. This is the love of God: doing everything necessary, most painfully in the death of his Son, to enthrall us with what is most deeply and durably satisfying—namely, himself.”

Eternal life isn’t just a duration of time but a quality of life. And Heaven isn’t just a place—it’s a person—Jesus Christ is Heaven. Heaven is only Heaven because Jesus is there reigning as King! ———————————————————————-“You make known to me the path of life;
 in your presence there is fullness of joy;
 at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.” Psalm 16:11
 “everyone who is called by my name,
 whom I created for my glory,
 whom I formed and made.” Isaiah 43:7
