“He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.” (Revelation 21:4)
The question of whether we will see our loved ones in heaven is one that stirs deep emotions within us. It is natural to long for the comfort of knowing that those we cherish will be with us in eternity. The promise of heaven offers us hope, and it is this hope that fuels our mission to share our faith with others.
Why we must have a conversation about Jesus with our loved ones.
As believers, we are called to share the message of Jesus with our unsaved loved ones. This calling is rooted in love, hope, and the understanding of eternal consequences. We need to remember that every interaction we have can plant a seed of faith. Our relationships with our family and friends are often the most impactful, as they see our daily lives and witness our faith in action.
Yet, what happens when our loved ones are not receptive to the Gospel? It can be disheartening, but even in those moments, we must continue to shine as a “lamp on a hill” (Matthew 5:14). Our lives serve as beacons of light in this dark world, and our unwavering faith can be a powerful testimony. People watch us, sometimes more closely than we realize.
Being diligent in our faith means living out the values of Christ in our daily actions. It encompasses kindness, patience, forgiveness, and love, even when faced with rejection or indifference. This authenticity and consistency can eventually break down barriers and open hearts to the message of salvation.
Take a moment to reflect on the loved ones in your life who may not yet know Jesus. Are there ways you can be a light to them? How can you demonstrate your faith in practical, loving ways? Remember that your actions may speak louder than words, and your steadfastness in faith can leave a lasting impression.
“Be diligent in sharing Jesus, for the end days are upon us; His return will come like a thief in the night, and every soul matters in the light of eternity.”
Prayer:
Heavenly Father, thank You for the promise of eternal life with You and the hope of reuniting with our loved ones in heaven. Help us to be persistent in sharing Your love and truth with those who do not yet know You. Give us patience and understanding as we navigate our relationships, especially when faced with rejection. May our lives be a reflection of Your light, drawing others closer to You. Let us shine brightly in the darkness, and help us to remain diligent in our faith. In Jesus’ name, we pray. Amen.
