Forever Wanting


Look at how the devil has us wasting time.  We get that position we wanted, but now we see a better one.  We get that car we wanted, but now we want another one.  We finally achieved that degree, but now we want a higher one.  We want to feel more special then our neighbor so we show out with those name brands.  Think about it, the road to wants is never ending.  The flesh is never really satisfied.  Yet at the end of our lives, would that wanting road we are on now even be a thought when we close our eyes?

Eternity is what’s truly forever. When you compare our life on earth to eternity, many things begin to seem irrelevant.  Take a moment and search yourself, what have you really been doing to prepare for your eternity? Selah

And now abides faith, hope and love, but the greatest of these is love 1 Corinthians 13:13

Throughout the New Testament one word is emphasize, love.  Love can cover a multitude of sin. Love fulfills the law, love is patient, we are to love one another, etc.  Ever wonder why one word is stressed so much in the Bible?  God is love.  We have Him within our hearts.  We are to be Christ-like.  We are to be love. Selah

So do we walk in love, or hold grudges?  Do we choose love and forgive, or justify unforgiveness? Do we love our neighbor as ourselves or do we get what’s ours alone?  Just take a minute to think how much better our day can be when we decide to just walk in love.  Notice I said decide to, as there are time we are not going to feel the need to!  Love is part of or eternity. God so loved us, He gave…
Yes, thank God for the job, thank God for the house, thank God for the car, and thank God for the education.  However what does it profit a man to gain the whole world and loose his soul?  What shall a man give in exchange of his soul?  Let’s stop having our hearts in world time and start having our hearts in God time.  I am finding that true success is really walking in love!
