Do you remember the question that I asked about your life?
Do you think your life is precious? If so, what is your plan with your precious
life? We have to think about our lives in
the perspective of God because God is one who gave us life. For example if
someone falls into the ocean, they struggle and flounder in the ocean in order
to live. A lifeguard who sees that individual struggle will dive into the ocean
to save their life. Do you think that individual should just walk away from the
lifeguard because after surviving from the treacherous ocean waves? Shouldn’t
the individual be thankful to the lifeguard who saved their life? Like this story,
we have to think about God who is root of all life. If we are still breathing
at this time, we have to think about God with every breath that we take.
In the bible, there are lot people who sacrificed their lives for God. In Hebrews chapter 11, many prophets
were stoned, put to death by the sword, persecuted
and mistreated when they spread the gospel. How were they able to sacrifice
their lives for God? It was because they
understood God’s heart through His Word that they were able to dedicate the
most precious thing to God, which were their lives. Then in this era, what can
we do with this precious life? We have to keep God’s Word in our hearts and our
minds that came from prophets who sacrificed their lives for His Word. God is looking for a person who has His Word
because God’s heart is recorded within the Word. (John1:1-5) Those who think
God’s Word as life will keep hold to their precious lives forever and ever.
Amen.
“He has made
everything beautiful in its time. He has also set eternity in the human heart;
yet no one can fathom what God has done from beginning to end.” –Ecclesiastes
3:11
