  Listen Now

In the book of James we read,

“Now listen, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go to this or that city, spend a year there, carry on business and make money.”  

   Why, you do not even know what will happen tomorrow. What is your life? You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.” James 4:13,14.

I know that most people reading this are Christians. That being said Christians from time to time need to rethink their priorities.

I think at times we believers in Christ Jesus become complacent. We just let life carry us along. We make plans assuming “we will have a tomorrow”. But tomorrow in this world is not guaranteed.

As a result we need to take time daily to pray to God for wisdom and guidance in all that we do. 

We also need to consider what C. T. Studd a missionary to China, India and Africa (1860-1931) wrote,

“We have only one life it will soon be past. 

Only what’s done for Christ will last.”

                                                           Charles Thomas Studd.

Please think about it.

My Belief

My Belief

Is man but an atom in space?

A mist in time?

A moment in eternity?

What is your life?

Your life or mine?

What of the life of a man?

What is the sum total of Life?

Is it a collection of bobbles bangles and beads.

A collection of artifacts past to the next generation?

Is all there is to life,

A gathering of things.

That you never can keep?

Is it a mans... 

A Woman’s duty,

to procreate,

Train the next generation,

then pass into oblivion?

Or

is life more?

Is life Eternal?

Destined to continue on through endless days?

At a place of our own choosing?

I believe you have a choice.

Jesus said,

“For God so loved the world 

that he gave his one and only Son, 

that whoever believes in him shall not perish 

but have eternal life.  

For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, 

but to save the world through him.  

Whoever believes in him is not condemned, 

but whoever does not believe stands condemned already 

because he has not believed in the name 

of God’s one and only Son”.

                                           John 3:16-18.

This is what I believe.

What do you believe?
