Rich Forever

June 20

"For You make me glad by Your deeds, Lord; I sing for joy at the work of Your hands." Psalm 92:4

IT'S YOUR MOVE

You're here and I'm here. God decided to have us intersect history, not at any time, but at this time. He made us to be good at a few things and bad at a couple others. He made us to love some things and not like others. Most of all, He made us to dream. We were meant to dream a lot.

We're not just a cosmic biology experiment that ended up working. We're part of God's much bigger plan for the whole world. Just like God's son arrived here, so did you. And after Jesus arrived, God whispered to all of humanity... "It's your move."

Heaven's been leaning over the rails in the same way ever since you got here, waiting to see what you'll do with your life.-- Bob Goff, from “Love Does”



Yes, indeed, the One True and Living God has high expectations for you. It is His intent that you use your gifts to accomplish great things. But even if you don’t turn out to be an Albert Einstein or a Jonas Salk, you will not have fallen short of His hope for you if you attain this one thing.

Your loving Heavenly Father wants you to receive the fullness of the “unspeakable Gift” (II Corinthians 9:15) He extends to you. The Master of all creation wants you to embrace His Holy Child Jesus, who was sacrificed for you at Calvary, as your Savior and Lord.

Apart from this single act on your part, nothing else you achieve or don’t achieve is of any consequence. Whether your name is written down in history as one of the greatest scientists, inventors, playwrights, doctors, teachers…of all time, when you slip this mortal coil, the only thing about you that will count is what you did with Jesus.

Only one thing matters for time and eternity—is Jesus your Savior? If He is, though you may be obscure and unaccomplished in time, you will be rich for eternity. If He is not, though the world may have heaped accolades upon you for your contributions to the betterment of mankind, you will be an eternal popper

Decide today to receive the unspeakable Gift that makes you rich forever.
