REDEEMER
For a believer there is the hope of an intimate relationship with our
Redeemer.
In Heaven we shall see our Redeemer face to face and we can be
forever in His presence.
We have believed in the Lord by faith and served Him and trusted in
Him .
We have loved our Savior even though we have not seen Him face to
face.
But in the kingdom we will meet him face to face and our joy will be
complete.
We will enter into a new relationship with Him as the bride of the
Heavenly Bridegroom.
Just like the surprises of who gets what reward
There will be people in the kingdom that will be a surprise
