We are made to last forever.

Think about that title. We as humans are made to last forever and ever.

Here are today's verses:

Ecclesiastes 3:11a
11 He has made everything beautiful in its time. Also He has put eternity in their hearts

2 Corinthians 5:1
1 For we know that if our earthly house, this tent, is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

1 John 2:17
17 And the world is passing away, and the lust of it; but he who does the will of God abides forever.

Mark 9:45
And if your foot causes you to sin, cut it off. It is better for you to enter life lame, rather than having two feet, to be cast into hell, into the fire that shall never be quenched—

The first three verses talk of eternity with God and the last one refers to eternity in hell where the fire shall never be quenched. From the very beginning God has created man to live forever. The original plan was for man (Adam and Eve) to dwell forever in the garden of Eden. But when sin entered into this world that plan was eliminated. Today God's plan is for us to spend eterinty with Him in heaven forever. The other option is to spend an eternity in hell. As you can see we are going to live forever somewhere. God demonstrates His love for man by giving us a choice. WE CHOOSE where we go. God did not make robots to follow after His every command. He has given us free will to choose....that is a God who loves. So how do we choose eternity in heaven with God??? It is very simple. Ask His son Jesus Christ ,who died on the cross for our sins on the cross and rose from the grave to defeat death and sin on our behalf, into our hearts as Lord and Savior. The turn from our sins and follow Him with our lives. It is very simple but yet so hard for most.

So that brings us to this. Where are you going to spend eternity? You will live forever one way or another. The choice is all yours because God loves you!

Enjoy your God given day!
