God has rescued you from the darkness. He has a great calling on your life. Don’t waste time on the meaningless things of this world — use your time wisely.. give all your heart to the cause of Christ. You are a son/daughter of the King of kings.. live accordingly. :)
“Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade.” (1 Peter 1:3-4) Proof that YOLO isn’t true and death has been defeated <3
I’m not really sure why YOLO is such a big catchphrase, because honestly I don’t feel that way. I know that this life is temporary and that ultimately my home is in heaven. For those who do not know Jesus, the best they will ever experience in life is on this side of eternity, but for those who do know Jesus, the worst things in life they will ever experience are on this side of eternity. The children of God have an eternity of celebration to look forward to, because once this life is over, we will be entering into a new life of perfection with our Father in heaven! It breaks my heart to know that so many are experiencing the best times they will ever know, while on this side of eternity. I want to bring the message of true hope in Jesus Christ to those people. Even though I love the life God has given me to live here on earth, and I know that there is an incredible purpose for the life He has given me to live, I know that ultimately my treasure is waiting in heaven! Praise be to God, who gives us more than this life can ever offer!! <3
Then he remembered that God had not called him to save India, nor to save anyone in India, but that He had called him to preach to gospel of Christ in India to all who would listen; God would do the saving.
