They focus on the here and now.

This world is lonely and cold.

Why do people focus more on temporary instead of focusing on eternal? Why do they live a life of emptiness? Why do they lie to themselves by thinking that they are fulfilled when they clearly know they are not? I look around and all I see are shadows that get lost in the darkness of this world. I am surrounded by people who have no idea what their purpose is in this life. People wear a mask which says, “everything is okay..really” when they know so well it’s not. Do they even stop to think that they are lying to themselves or are they too blind to even realize the fact that they are? I see people who still wonder how they came about or if they really evolved from a monkey. This world is full of people that are in denial of the truth because they think that believing in something that might not be true is just not worth it. They say that they choose not to believe, but have they stopped to think that by not believing that there is a God; they actually believe in something that might not be true? Is it just easier to live for yourself thinking that your life comes to a stop when you close your eyes to never open them again? I think it is. What this world fails to admit is the truth that life does not end when your body hits the grave, but it is rather then when it begins. When we close our mortal eyes, we automatically open the eyes of our soul; which are eternal. Your life does never end. Let me put it this way, your soul is made to live forever. One day, you will open your eyes in eternity and will realize that your life was the only chance you had in order to choose where your soul is going to live forever. There are only two choices, and I’m sure you know very well what they are. Tomorrow is not yours, so live today carefully. You have a choice; choose wisely. Your eternity depends on it!

God is in control!

You hold my world in the palm of your hand.

Today was a day filled with God’s presence. I know He is always with me, holding my hand through this world and never letting go. Today, however; was a day in which I saw God in my life like never before. He showed me that He is in control of everything and that He will always make everything turn out okay in the end. Even if things do go wrong, there definitely is a time when salvation comes! God does answer prayer, even if at times it seems to take longer than usual. He is always listening, always watching, always loving. My God is alive, He proves that to me every moment of my life. With every breath that I take, I feel the reality of His faithfulness all around me. I am so happy to have God as my refuge, my strength, and my hope! I am constantly learning what it means to leave things in God’s hands. Trusting God with my life does not mean that everything will go perfect, it rather means that He will never let me fall. Even when life is hard; He is in control! Believing in Him fills my heart with a peace that nothing can take away from me. His quiet, still voice that is whispered inside my heart brings strength to my soul and life to the deepest parts of my being. Praise God for being so good!
