A few Sundays ago, after the service, a precious friend
took time to talk and listen and encourage.
She said something that has been such a blessing to my heart.
"The days are long, but, the years are short."
It will only seem a moment before we are ushered into glory.
Life here is temporary. Life there is permanent.
Life here is temporary. Life there is permanent.
Helpful words? Yes. Comforting? Absolutely.
Every elderly person I have ever spoken to
says the same thing ~ life flies by!
And, in the twinkling of an eye ~ eternity begins.
It happens this way for all of us.
The big questions, in light of this, are these ~
It happens this way for all of us.
The big questions, in light of this, are these ~
Where will we spend it? Where will we go? Are we ready?
It is not on our own merit that we are welcomed into Heaven.
It is all the Lord's. All of it. We depend on His works. Not ours.
The Lord Jesus Christ's perfect life lived on our behalf.
The complete and perfect payment of the penalty
for the sin of His people. He took our sins upon Himself,
in order that He could bestow His perfection on us.
The Lord Jesus Christ's perfect life lived on our behalf.
The complete and perfect payment of the penalty

in order that He could bestow His perfection on us.
The Lamb of God. We must look to Him. Trust in Him.
Surrender to Him ~ completely and utterly.
In His work alone is Salvation to be found.
It's the only way. He is the only way.
What is He to you? Is your peace found in Him?
Is He your all in all? Do you trust Him with your never dying soul?
Settle with Him before the time He has granted you is gone.
Before we know it, it will be!
We all face the same reality. Time is short.
We only have this moment ~ none other is guaranteed.
Flee to Christ while He may be found!
"All that the Father giveth me shall come to me;
and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out."
~ John 6:37 ~
The best way to be found of Him is to read His Word.
Begin by reading Genesis, and then read the book of John.
His Word, the Bible, is True. It's Powerful.
The words can only change us if the words are read.
We can only be changed by the power of the Living God. By His Grace.
In light of this, please ask the Lord to open your eyes to see and
enlighten your heart to understand. He is able. He is merciful.
And, He graciously answers prayers like those.
The greatest thing in all of life is to belong to Him.
Be sure you are His and He is yours ~ nothing is more important.
Nothing.
Many Blessings,
Camille
