I'm now enjoying watching cartoons while updating my blog. My classes are starting next week and yea I just couldn't wait for it. I know this coming semester the subjects are going to be tough but I believe that I can do well and get a great result. yes, Jesus is going to be with me at all times to guide,help and encourage me.

DAY 4: Made to Last Forever!

This life is not all there is.
Life on earth is just the dress rehearsal before the real production. You will spend far more time on the other side of death in eternity than you will here. Earth is the staging area, the preschool, the tryout for your life in eternity. It is the orastice workout before the actual game, the warm-up lap before the race begins. This life is preparation for the next.
At most, you will live a hundreds years on earth, but you will spend forever in eternity. The Bible says, "God has planted eternity in the human heart." You have an inborn instinct that longs for immortality. This is because God has designed you, in his image, to live for eternity. Even though we know everyone eventually dies, death always seems unnatural and unfair. The reason we feel we should live forever is that God wired our brain with that desire!
One day your heart will stop beating. That will be the end of your body and your time on earth, but it will not be the end of you. Your earthly body is just a temporary residence for your spirit. The Bible calls your earthly body a "tent", but refers your future body as a "house." The Bible says, "When this tent we live in, our body here on earth is torn down, God will have a house in heaven for us to live in, a home he himself has made, which will last forever."
While life on earth offers many choices, eternity offers only two which are heaven or hell. Your relationship with God on earth will determine your relationship to him in eternity. If you learn to love and trust God's Son, Jesus, you will be invited to spend the rest of eternity with him. On the other hand, if you reject his love, forgiveness, and also salvation, you will spend eternity apart from God forever.
