1 John 5.11
"And this is the testimony: God has given us eternal life,

and this life is in his Son."
 

     "An Illinois man left the snow-filled streets of Chicago for a vacation in Florida. His wife was on a business trip and was planning to meet him there the next day.
     When he reached his hotel, he decided to send his wife a quick email. Unable to find the scrap of paper on which he had written her email address, he did his best to type it in from memory.
     Unfortunately, he missed one letter and his note was directed instead to an elderly preacher's wife, whose husband had passed away only the day before. When the grieving widow checked her email, she took one look at the monitor, let out a piercing scream and fell to the floor in a dead faint. At the sound, her family rushed into the room and saw this note on the screen:

DEAREST WIFE: JUST GOT CHECKED IN. EVERYTHING PREPARED FOR YOUR ARRIVAL TOMORROW.
P.S. SURE IS HOT DOWN HERE."

(from a joke a day website)

 

     It is just a humor but reminds us of an important perspective for Christians. It is His promise that we will have eternal life if we believe Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior! It is truly the privilege of believers to see the eternity on earth, as God sees it. At death we will not leave home-actually we go home.
