Prepare for Eternity

We often hear "life is short, better enjoy it!" How about "eternity is long, better prepare for it!" - Anon

Methuselah lived 969 years. We're now thousands of years beyond that. Hmm!

It's no secret God wants the best for us. He's blessed this earth and gave man authority over it. He wants us to live fully, enjoy bountifully, share openly, and love others unconditionally during our time here. Seemingly achievable goals for any one of us. But before we set our life goals on 'comfort' here, all of this must be taken in context with the understanding God made us eternal beings with a final destination beyond this earth. And though He wants us to spend that eternity with Him, He will not force us into His heavenly glory. Hopefully as we enjoy this life we've also given some thought to our afterlife. Today is a good day to start.

Until Monday...

Pastor Botts

"Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things. For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God." - Colossians 3:2


Hope to see you tonight at 6:30pm for our Good Friday service.
