It is precious…
It is fresh…
It is exciting to watch the life of a newborn baby…
It is sometimes exhilarating…
It is at other times exasperating…
It can be short…
It can be way into the 100’s…
All of these things are true about life. Plus, there are many more thoughts we could share to describe life—YOUR life. But the most important description is ETERNAL. Do you know that man was born with a spirit that will live on for eternity? Hard for us to wrap our brains around that truth.
The life this week that we are celebrating is the LIFE of JESUS as He walked this earth and then died on a cross for the sins of every human ever given life. Then triumphantly He rose from the dead and is ALIVE now. The truth is, if we believe in His work on the cross for each of us, then we are promised to have eternal life in Heaven with Him.
Now that is REAL LIFE—with Jesus in Heaven for eternity.
The only question here is, have you believed in Jesus Christ and received Him as the Savior for your sins? If the answer is YES, then Praise God—you can describe yourself as having ETERNAL LIFE!! If the answer is NO, please take this moment to talk to Jesus and tell Him you have sinned and you want Him to cleanse you from your sin and come into your LIFE. Then you, my friend, will enjoy the description of having ETERNAL LIFE WITH JESUS IN HEAVEN.
“And this is the way to have eternal life—to know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth.” John 17:3 (NLT)
