Today's Scripture *August 6, 2010*
1 John 2: 17
And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever.
When the desire for possessions and sinful pleasures feels so intense, we probably doubt that these objects of desire will all one day pass away. In the moment we crave only that intense desire. It may be even more difficult to believe that the person who does the will of God will live forever. But this was John's conviction based on the facts of Jesus' life, death, Resurrection, and promises. Knowing that this evil world will end can give you the courage to deny yourself temporary pleasures in this world in order to enjoy what God has promised for eternity.
God, we look forward with glorious anticipation to our eternity with You!
Help us to have the strength to resist the temptations of worldly desires.
May we stay focused on Your Word and Your desires for us.
We praise You and thank You for all that we do have, and will have, in eternity with You!
In Jesus' Name, Amen..
God bless your day!
In Christ's service,
April
