Today’s Thought “Don’t Speak That?” G. Ward Ecclesiastes 7 2 It is better to go to a house of mourning than to go to a house of feasting, because that is the end of every person, and the living takes it to heart. Jane Fonda is said to be preparing for death in view of her cancer status in a recent article; it furthered that she’s “at peace with herself.” Many religionists have pervaded a thought that mankind (by faith) is with ability to thwart sickness, even death, because of what perceivably God said (2 Ti.4:2-4), discounting our grandparent’s faith, as if to say this generation is deserving of such “new” spiritual discernment because we’re more adept unto knowledge (Ro.2:11) and whereas my generation and before marveled at how only Holy God spoke things into existence, knowing our selfish desire wouldn’t first look to the interests of others (as our Savior exemplified), particularly if given the same (cf. Phil.2:2-7), maintains All Authority in doing so (i.e., His Sovereignty). Perhaps we’ve not been given such a grim diagnosis (as Jane Fonda’s), but our preparation must maintain expedience onto every man’s reality (*faith in Christ is solely on His terms, worthy of pursuit). Could earth’s end be yours today (John 14:1-3)?
