What I would love is for everyone in the world to stop for a moment before they lay their head on the pillow at night and hear the Holy Spirit whisper into the depth of their soul: where you go, I will go. Where you lodge, I will lodge. It's such a beautiful pledge of companionship, even to the point of death, which is exactly what God has promised all who believe!! When we die, God will be there, for we will be ferried through the curtain of death into eternal life. God is determined to be with us, and there is nothing that death can say, for the Lord of life has spoken a claim over you, and nothing shall stop God's claim on your life!
If Christians live with this comfort in the depth of their souls, going into the world with the confidence of a people beloved by God, then perhaps we can be agents of peace and hope, inviting the world to hear how God is already at work in the world, already calling to every heart, whispering this pledge of companionship and grace.
