Well, another year almost gone. I don't know what it is, but the older I get, time is going by so much quicker. I feel like I have to try and squeeze so much in. I don't want to have any regrets.
One thing I know I will never have any regret about is, my hunger and thirst to know more of God and His plan for my life. Also that I love encouraging others to do the same. Because really, that's what this life is all about. Our time here is short. Eternity is unending time. Try to wrap your head around that one. No scholar of this world could even grasp an inch of such infinity.
So many I know didn't make it through this year. But everyone that I know personally, knew the Lord and where they were going. Do you?
Every day is a gift. Do you really know Jesus, and why He came? That He died for our sins. That if we believe, and accept this truth, we will be with Him and our loved ones who believed forever and ever. Will you be ready when that trumpet sounds?
1 Thessalonians 4: 16-17.
"For the Lord himself will descend from heaven with a cry of command, with the voice of an archangel, and with the sound of the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive, who are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we will always be with the Lord."
This truth is no longer a mystery to us. It's been explained throughout the scriptures, and a beautiful truth it is.
Everything wrong with us will change in a twinkling of an eye, 1 Corinthians 15:51-53. We will be like Him! Oh my precious Jesus. What a day that will be, 1 John 3: 2-3.
Oh how I pray you search the scriptures and find peace in knowing that when our loved ones die, they are the ones truly living.
For Your glory Lord
