As things began to get chaotic in this world, everyone is looking for a special place. They are looking for a place of their own, a place where they feel comfortable. My, how much time, resources and effort are spent on trying to make your home a special place. Everyone would like for their place to feel secure. As we purchase valuables, we want them to be safe. For safety reasons, people began to try to secure their homes with alarms, cameras and guns. They began to lock themselves in their own homes, so where is the comfort? It sounds like troubled hearts and insecurity in your own place.
But in St. John Chapter 14, Jesus told His discipline not to have a troubled heart. He told them not to let their hearts be afraid because He is going away to prepare a place for them. In His Father's house are many mansions. He is preparing a place for His disciples because He is coming back to get them. Yes, He is coming back just like He said. Why would He prepare somewhere for you to live forever and not come back for you and take you there?
