Diamonds last forever.Lately I have been thinking about eternity. Solomon tells us that God “set eternity” in our hearts. I think that “setting” will last longer than a diamond one.
When each of us is born, we enter the eternity continuum with infinity extending behind and before. Once we are here, we have a decision to make: Will we bow to our creator and spend the eternity with him in the “new heaven and new earth” or will we be separated from him and experience spiritual death.
Heavy topic, I know.
But, real, all the same.
Things on this earth can seem so important, so disappointing, so whatever. But are they? Really?
Remember today: You are a child of God, and you have eternity in your heart. Live like that is true.
“Give thanks to the Lord for he is good. And his love endures forever.” (1 Chronicles 16:34)
