First. JESUS is holding us.
JOHN 10:28&29 AND I GIVE UNTO THEM ETERNAL LIFE, AND THEY SHALL NEVER PERISH, NEITHER SHALL ANY MAN PLUCK THEM OUT OF MY HAND. MY FATHER, WHICH GAVE THEM ME, IS GREATER THAN ALL, AND NO MAN IS ABLE TO PLUCK THEM OUT OF MY FATHER'S HAND.
Second, I say second, but it is as close to the first as can be. The song says "I will hold on to JESUS with all that I have, to see you again" This one quote takes away everything that JESUS did, HIS SACRIFICE, HIS BURIAL, HIS RESURRECTION EVERYTHING done for the SALVATION of the sinner. Think about all that JESUS did and is still doing, SAVING souls for eternity, keeping souls from eternal damnation. HIS SACRIFICE is totally forgotten. All the person is wanting to hold on to see JESUS for is to see the person they are missing. WOW! Wanting to see them so bad they are wanting to hurry up and be with them. After all of the missing and not understanding why the person had to die, he will hold on to JESUS to see them again. I know you he missing of my loved ones that are with The LORD and I know the sorrow felt by the death of those that I thought were too young to die. The love that I still have for them is strong, maybe even stronger because of the missing of them. I will see them one day, but my longing is for JESUS!!! I also know some will think I am nitpicking over words, but I will nitpick until I am with HIM in HEAVEN. HE IS WORTHY OF ALL PRAISE!!! All of our longings should be for HIM, and HIM ONLY!!!
THANK YOU O LORD FOR YOUR SACRIFICE!
