Psalms 28, 39, 41, 42, 43; 2 Samuel 16:16-17:23

We’ve all heard it said, “life is short”. But do we have a clue about the length of life on this earth compared to eternity? David said it’s like taking a breath. Ninety years on earth is like the time it takes to inhale. A second? A fraction of a second?

So, yes life is short. But what we do in this hiccup in eternity is so important. In fact, nothing is more important because the choice we make here will determine our eternity.

It’s not like we have to hurry and live a good life or get involved in a church or give more money to charity. Those things certainly effect the quality of life we enjoy while we’re here. But there is only one question God will ask of us when we see him face to face.

What did you do with my Son?

At that moment our good intentions, our good deeds, our position in society will be laid aside and all we’ll have is the answer to that question.

Is Jesus my Savior? Yes – or No.
