Overwhelmed

Hebrews 3

1 And so, dear brothers and sisters who belong to God and are partners with those called to heaven, think carefully about this Jesus whom we declare to be God’s messenger and High Priest. 2 For he was faithful to God, who appointed him, just as Moses served faithfully when he was entrusted with God’s entire house.

3 But Jesus deserves far more glory than Moses, just as a person who builds a house deserves more praise than the house itself. 4 For every house has a builder, but the one who built everything is God.

5 Moses was certainly faithful in God’s house as a servant. His work was an illustration of the truths God would reveal later. 6 But Christ, as the Son, is in charge of God’s entire house. And we are God’s house, if we keep our courage and remain confident in our hope in Christ.

I am overwhelmed when I think of the glory and majesty of my Lord Jesus. I am even more overwhelmed by the thought of being God’s house! Did you catch that? Of course, there is that HUGE qualifier laid in there: IF. We are God’s house IF we keep our courage and remain confident in our hope in Christ. Well, Jesus is the ONLY One in Whom I have my hope and confidence placed. Lord, keep me focused on You daily.
