You are going to heaven, it is settled and we can stop worrying about our salvation. We live in a cycle of seed, time, and harvest. Everyday we are sowing seeds, but our soil is toxic. The only plants growing we call weeds, like dandelions.
Dandelions are very nutritious but don't taste very well, they are bitter. Dandelions pump nutrients into the soil and aerate hard dense soil. They represent Gods grace, mana from heaven. Even while we are poisoning our harvest God is providing for us, but as we are eating our harvest of dandelions we blame God.
Salvation is by grace, mana from God, and nothing we do will change that. But if you are looking for more, a better harvest, it begins with the seeds you are sowing.
When we are focused on our own salvation our eyes are off the prize, love. We don't need to be good enough for God, we need to be good to each other. The whole of the gospel of Christ is love and equality. Never treat a rich man as more important than a poor man. Never put your own comfort over the needs of another. Do all things from love for one another for this is Gods will, "love your neighbor as you love yourself". Create a healthy environment of love and sow good seed into the lives of others to create a cycle of abundant harvest. Worry not for yourself, remember that all are saved in Christ (when they believe) . Life is what you make of it. We are all born into flesh, and all flesh dies, but we are not all born in spirit, that is a choice.
When we enter heaven there will be different levels, ranks and positions. It is written "the last in this world will be first in the next". When we are low God lifts us high. A humble heart is righteous before YHVH.
A repeated theme in my blogs is to lay down your life and allow YHVH to live through you. The more we lay down our own desires, our own council, and our own comfort, the more God can live through us.
Do all things in love and faith, for anything not done in faith is sin.
