ONE YEAR CLOSER

I'm one year closer to my goal. There is only one goal left in my life. To die. For to live is Christ, and to die is gain. That's the only reason to live. I'm 365 days closer to seeing Jesus than I was a year ago. This has been the quickest year of my life. They say that happens as you get older. Time moves faster. Time is my best friend. Each heartbeat brings me one heartbeat closer to eternity and the joy that awaits me. Every day brings me closer to immortality.

The wicked have no hope. They know that when they die, every good thing they have ever known will be gone. It is good for them that they believe a lie. It is a good thing for the wicked to be deceived. IF they truly believe in their heart that there is no God, no Heaven, no Hell, no everlasting reward or eternal punishment, then that is a good thing for them. It allows them to live their lives without fear of death. But have you ever seen an unbeliever who is not afraid to die? In their heart and mind is that seed of doubt about what death holds for them.

So I pray this year goes by even faster than the last. Each day brings me closer to my destination. I am not afraid of death, and I don't worry about what life may bring. A thousand years from now I'll be where I want to be. With my Creator.
