This morning I was watching the weather and all the talk of the dense fog, and how it would burn off in a couple of hours with the coming sun. I could not help but think of how those statements were parallel with what we read in the Bible. Our time here is temporary, and we do not know when we will fade as the morning fog, but we are guaranteed a pathway into the next life through the Son, into eternal paradise. Are you ready?
The Fog
James 4:14 whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.
Today you will arise, go throughout your day for probably close to 16 hours, called to the duties of the day. You will follow the order of things, you will tackle the obstacles that arise, and in your mind you hope to overcome all that is set before you today. But what if today was your last? What if today, your life faded as the fog of this morning in just a few hours? How would today be different? Are you ready to face eternity in either Heaven or Hell?
Proverbs 27:1 Do not boast about tomorrow, For you do not know what a day may bring forth. We simply have no idea of when our time here is up. The tragedies of life have struck, and will strike, many of us that forever change us. But they must direct us to life’s futility, and the importance of our limited time, and our preparation for the life thereafter. We are assured of few things, but death of our flesh, and the assurance of a pathway of our souls into eternal paradise are guaranteed. Christ has provided the Way through the security of Salvation to not worry about what tomorrow or today might bring. The apostle Paul saw his time here, and even his death, all as an opportunity to glorify Christ. Philippians 1:21 For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. How could today be different for you?
