Life Is So Short

Many of us never stop to think about just how short life is when it is compared to eternal life. We get so caught up the rat race of society that we fail to think about the after life or what the bible refers to as eternity. Yes there is life after one dies and I am not talking about purgatory.....and forget about reincarnation too. That is not going to happen. "It is appointed
for all men to die and after that the judgement." "You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away." (James 4:14, NAS)

In Psalms 90, Moses talks about the shortness of life when compared to eternity.
"Lord, you have been our dwelling place and our refuge in all generations. Before the mountains were brought forth or ever you had formed and given birth to the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting you are God. You turn man back to dust and corruption, and say, return, O sons of the earthborn. For a thousand years in your sight are but as yesterday when it is past, or as a watch in the night." (Psalm 90:1-4, Amplified Bible)

When we feel that we cannot go another day with the pressures, pain, frustrations and disappointments that we face in this life, focus upon eternity. This is why it is so crucial to know Jesus Christ as your Savior. "For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son so that whosoever believeth in Him shall have eternal life." John 3:16

You may be saying, "ah I am too young to die" or " I haven't lived my life yet". DO NOT BE DECEIVED! Young people are dying at an alarming rate around the world, either murdered on our streets innocently or from diseases or catastrophes. Only you can make a difference where you will spend eternity - in Heaven or in Hell.

Please, I beg you, please consider choosing Jesus Christ today. God really loves you and He cares for you.
