Forever!

For Wednesday, June 5, 2024:

1 Peter 1:23 NLT: “For you have been born again, but not to a life that will quickly end. Your new life will last forever because it comes from the eternal, living word of God.”

When you became a Christian – when Jesus occupied a permanent place in your life – everything changed! Your eternal destination changed from the lake of fire to eternity in the presence of the Lord! Instead of just looking out for #1, we were taught to love and care for our fellows. We were taught to share! Widows and orphans became our friends, friends who could count on Christians when they needed help!

When we became Christians, our life span transformed from earthly days to forever days in the Kingdom that never ends. We have Assurance of Salvation, a reservation on the inside of heaven. Jesus said so!

Pretend that you’re an orphan with nothing in this world, and suddenly you’re adopted into the best family ever! Wow – big transformative change! The Holy Family wants to include you – in everything!

When Jesus taps you on the shoulder, say “Yes!”
