On My Mind

Death, it's a word most avoid discussing, and tend not to think about. It is the end. the end of life as we know it. Most believe in some sort of afterlife, in which the deceased is rewarded for their deeds. Some even believe that death is the complete end and that nothing happens after death.

I believe that their is an after-life after the grave, but you are not rewarded for deeds, but by faith. Faith in what, FAITH in the Lord and Savior of the World, Jesus Christ. Those who refuse or fail to place their faith in Jesus will go to Hell, this is not a fate I wish on anyone. I don't wish ill toward anyone, but it is a reality, the Bible, the Word of God spells this out for us.

I pray that the deaths of Michael Jackson, Farrah Fawcett, Ed McMahon, and others awaken you to the urgent decision that needs to be made.

Christ said those who spare their lives will lose it, those who lose their lives shall save it. Choosing Christ definitely means a sacrifice, some harder then others. You might have to take a stand against things loved one's do. You might have to distance yourself from some things and people. But, it's definitely worth it to serve Christ, the Godman, who died to free you from slavery to sin.

It's either Christ or the world, there is no middle ground, gray area, fence sitting, or indecision. Make a decision today, I pray you make the right one.
