Greetings,
Wow! those two questions are pretty simple to answer.No you didn't and no you don't!Let's see if we can make a letter of compelling thought around these two truths'.We will start our letter with two more questions.
We came into this world kicking,when we leave this world will we still be kicking about the fact we're leaving it?and the bigger question; if we are ,why?
Let's start addressing our questions by talking about birth.What a traumatic experience leaving the warm,floating in water, perfectly comfortable environment for our little bodies,being "hooked up"to a tube[umbilical cord]that brings oxygen and nutrients through our blood to keep us alive.Imagine the wonder of it all,floating around,being fed,no responsibilities,all of a sudden,this environment changes to one of breaking water,what happened to my hot tub?,no breathing tube,I never even knew I had lungs!,a smack on my butt to get my lungs started,by the way while hanging upside down,not only that ,there's about a 25 degree difference in temperature from where I've been for nine months[LOWER]I'm cold,where's the blanket?/No wonder I'm screaming!I believe we can all understand coming into this world with out a smile on our face after experiencing this "birth"kind of trauma.Welcome to the real world!
Now let's try and answer the question of why would we leave this world kicking?Didn't we take the time to find the truth about our physical death leading to our spiritual life for all eternity with our Creator God?Didn't we take the time to find the love of our Creator that sets in all our hearts?Don't we know His Son's name who died on the cross for our sins? A name above all names;Jesus!The great news is;It's not too late!Take action!Find the truth that will give you peace when that last day of your earthly life arrives,and it will,probably sooner than you think.Don't take the chance of having to have your kicking boots on,as opposed to wearing the cloak of His immaculate love that will guide you through the valley of darkness of your earthly life to the light of heaven in your eternal soul life.
Find the truth,Jesus said "I am the way ,the truth and the life only through Me will you see My Father".I am amazed at how much time we will take to ensure the house we buy is the "right"one,the car we buy is the "right"one,the spouse we choose is the "right"one,there are so many decisions that we want to be "right"in our life,but the single most important one having to do with our eternal life seems so hap hazard to so many!God through His love for each of us,will give us ample opportunity to find Him;all we have to do is listen to His quiet voice inside of us and take action!He's waiting for us to choose Him and live with Him in heaven for all of eternity.
As the song goes"These boots were made for walking"make sure your boots aren't kicking to stay where you can't ,but walking toward Him for eternity.
Until next time,God bless all of you on your journey,Joe
