MY House

ISAIAH 56:5; "TO THEM I WILL GIVE IN MY HOUSE AND WITHIN MY WALLS A MEMORIAL AND A NAME BETTER [AND MORE ENDURING] THAN SONS AND DAUGHTERS; I WILL GIVE THEM AN EVERLASTING NAME THAT WILL NOT BE CUT OFF."

In our Wednesday night service it was mentioned about a plaque with the name on it for a pew. I thought about this with joy in my heart. How great is that that the Lord has already thought of that Himself. But He wants to take it up a notch, and make it an eternal name which can't be cut off.

I support the names that will go down on the walls of the new church building that will be made for others, and maybe not the ones who are building it. Maybe no one will know that you put hours into the work that builds the Kingdom of God here on earth, but you do get an eternal name for it...

"How hard is heaven?"
"I think I'll know, when I look up and see the glow, that shines an everlasting Name, on the ne-on cloud. Higher, and higher, the Name of Christ it flows, telling the heavens to show, my name, my glory name to all who lives above. How hard is heaven, don't look below, my name won't be there, its nailed to His Hand. How hard is heaven, well take a stand, for should you go there, you will gain, all that He died for, you'll get the glory of a brand new name." Song by PJCopty
