With Exceeding Joy

Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling,
and to present you faultless
before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy.
To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty,
dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen Jude 1:24-25

Jesus is able to present you faultless before the presence of His glory
That is a wonderful assurance
And with exceeding joy!
To know that when we face Jesus on Judgment Day,
when the books are opened,
if we have given Him our hearts and lives,
and accepted the riches of His grace
and realized that we can’t redeem ourselves,
with our own good works and efforts,
we shall be received with exceeding great joy
A very beautiful thought
The work is out of our hands
The need for perfection on our part is not necessary
and impossible anyway in the flesh,
without His beautiful cleansing and covering
Faultless
Clean
Renewed
Rest in that
Keep marching toward the upward calling
Toward His kingdom where we will be received and doted over
Try and try again to please Jesus out of thankfulness to Him
He will see your efforts
Forgiveness is there for the asking
He will see your heart and will receive you with grace
Know that you will never be perfect in your flesh
Know that He receives you as-is, as you are,
with mercy and grace and abounding steadfast love

I press toward the mark for the prize
of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 2:14
