Today’s Thought “Ready for Eternity?” G. Ward Revelation 22:20 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming quickly.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. Implicit faith in Jesus is difficult against the world’s demand of pleasure seeking principles from so many. It’s not difficult because desire for things and conditions plague us, but we yearn for the time to which their delight matches ours; to see Christ exalted over all. Moreover, a believer’s pursuit anticipates Jesus’ return, understanding it as “any moment.” Love for Jesus is loving His creation, so our receiving the Best, wants the same for everyone; particularly in view of their destiny as self-proposed through denial of HIM as LORD (*Rev.21:5-8). Therefore, stop with your plans for a few moments and plan for eternity (as this is the most vital decision ever). You must first ask yourself have I asked HIM to be my Savior. Calling Him Lord demands you’re no longer in charge. Secondly and with great reverence close your eyes and envision the throne of mercy and ask Him to forgive you for every sin (with confidence that HE will). In order that you don’t shrink back onto mediocrity, make a call unto one of your highest regard spiritually and ask them for accountability to grow in Christ; not in how much you know about Him, but adherence to every command to do what it says. Welcome to new life.
