Our faith in Christ should be our focus, and we must realistically accept the fact that one day will be our last day, and it will be sooner, or later, and it will come upon us at the pre-appointed time determined in advance by Our Lord. The important thing is to set it in your heart that God will take you from this earth when He desires, and it will be a joyous moment when we are with Jesus in glory. Make each day count. Pray continually. Read the Bible, take comfort in the psalms, and be a witness for Jesus while you are here. Don't be afraid to talk about the Lord with others, and express the hope within you. Identify yourself as a sinner saved by grace. Have confidence and strive against negativity and depression. You have been blessed. You belong to Jesus.John Joseph Flanaganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06596324816480709495noreply@blogger.com
