When standing before our Maker, it'll be just us and Him.
So, just incase God asks, "Who are you?"
you might want to have prepared your heart to answer.
"So, who are you?"
"My great grandfather was the President of our denomination of believers."
"Wow, that sounds quite impressive. But, who are you?"
"Oh, I am among a family of renown Biblical Scholars."
"Oh, really. Well, you have a good heritage! But, WHO are you?"
"Um, I'm the son of the Reverend that won 144,000 people to you, Lord."
"Wow, what a wonderful family! But, who are YOU?"
"Me? I studied Christian education, but that's as far as I got."
"That's nice, too. But, you still haven't answered my question. Who ARE
you?"
Uh ...
Ok, so I'm nobody, Lord. I stumbled, lost my way, and really messed things
up. I don't have anything special to offer and don't deserve your grace.
In
fact, I haven't done anything worthy of standing before you, here, today.
Only, in spite of all that went wrong, I still love you, Lord.
"Right answer."
"What do you mean, right answer?"
"Didn't you know? All I ever wanted was your heart."
No one makes it to heaven just by being born into the right family.
Romans 9:4-8
