Death

The blessing of assurance is often over looked. We have assurance in a great multitude of areas in our lives. We often overlook them and worry.  Then we are in bad shape worrying about things we ought not. That is a sinful state. Death is an aspect of Christianity that we should never worry about. Too often we do worry about death. We fear for our lives. That fear sometimes keeps us from doing the Lords work. We fear death even if it is from old age. Why? Death is a great thing. We get to go live on in peace in Abrahams bosom. Do not let your flesh steal your confidence of the blessed assurance of life after death. Being with Christ is far better than life on earth. As we remain on this earth we have a great deal of work to do. "If I die let me die in the service of my King"

“For to me, to live is Christ, and to die is gain. But if I live on in the flesh, this will mean fruit from my labor; yet what I shall choose I cannot tell. For I am hard-pressed between the two, having a desire to depart and be with Christ, which is far better.” Phil. 1:21-23

Live fearless and assurance full today. Go seek and save the lost. God is counting on you. :)

Gal. 1:3-5

The Effects

Make sure you are taking into account eternity with every choice you make about fun and pleasure. We will all be held accountable. As a family, we want to cultivate an environment that continually produces good wholesome fun. “For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, that each one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has done, whether good or bad.” 1 Corinthians 5:10 NKJV

With Spirit

     We are to worship God in spirit and truth. Truth being His word. Our spirit is what makes us up. Our spirit is all that we have. Who cares what that sounds like or what our best may amount to, to the ears and eyes of the world. God asked for all of us. Lip service will not suffice. Man-made concepts will cause our worship to come up short in God’s eyes. Be mindful of this. Give Him all you have. Hypocrites! Well did Isaiah prophesy about you, saying:   ‘These people draw near to Me with their mouth, And honor Me with their lips, But their heart is far from Me. And in vain they worship Me, Teaching as doctrines the commandments of men.’ ” Matthew 15:7-9 NKJV

Family Light

Make sure your light is always shining no matter what your family is doing. “You are the salt of the earth; but if the salt loses its flavor, how shall it be seasoned? It is then good for nothing but to be thrown out and trampled underfoot by men.   “You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:13-16 NKJV
