Has anyone ever even asked you about your eternity? Many people have likely never been asked this question. But, have you thought about it? Eternity is a long, long time and since Jesus talked about it then it surely is your destination. Where will you spend it is the question that needs answering. Some people, even pastors, have questioned where we will be after our life here. If you have read the gospels or heard a sermon from them, you have heard about it. Jesus died for us to have a chance at being in Heaven with Him so there is a life after this one, the only question that needs to be answered is will you be with Jesus?
If you haven’t given your life to Him then your eternity looks very different. You will be outside the boundaries of Heaven and outside the presence of God. Have you ever thought how that would be? Life would not be here without God’s sustaining it, including each of us.
All of us have heard this from counselors and teachers. “Which direction do you want to go?” We’ve thought of it in our younger years wondering about our choice of vocation. What do I want to do with my life? It is a very puzzling question because most of us don’t know the answer. We think about it and it leaves us in a quandary. Life has directions in it every day. We go to work or to the store to buy food for our table. We go places every day in some fashion or another. But what direction is your life going in ultimately? That is the eternal question.
Begin by following Jesus Christ and your life will have more meaning than you can imagine. Seek to know Jesus Christ and He will give your life a clear direction and a purpose.
