Well Done!

Matthew 25:21 - "Well done, good and faithful servant!"

Those are the words that I want to hear when I get to heaven.

That's what I'm holding out for. That's what I want to hear. Nothing else really matters. There's no other prize, award, honor, compliment, or congratulation which is more important. It's bigger than the Super Bowl trophy, or the Stanley Cup, or an Olympic gold medal, or an Oscar, or the Congressional Medal of Honor. It's bigger than all of them put together. And it's what I want.

We know what we have to do to hear these words from God. If we show ourselves faithful with a few things in this life, and if we love God and others, and if we serve others instead of being served, and if we show our faith by our works, then when we arrive in heaven, it's likely that we'll hear God say the same words to us. There are no sweeter words which could ever be heard.

"Well done, good and faithful servant!''

That's what I'm holding out for.

Those are the words that I want to hear from the lips of God.
