Living for Jesus Daily

Life is definately not a bowl of fruit.

Life is unfair
People are unreliable
The Future is unpredictable
Death is unavoidable

This is the human condition and although we all know it is true:  many chose to live their lives as if it is not so. When our lives are over and we stand before God he is not going to be concerned about many of the petty things that we humans are preoccupied with on a daily basis. No one is going to be able to write God a check to earn his favor. He is not concerned about our status in society. He will not be moved by how fly, smooth, cool, handsome, beautiful, or whatever other people say we are. He is concerned about how much our lives emulate the life of Christ.


Since much of what preoccupies the thinking of most people is ultimately meaningless in light of the fact that we must die and leave it all here, and everything we do and all that we are will eventually be forgotten. Should not our ambition be to seek the approval of God and not the praise and adoration of men?

None of us  have  time to waste. Set your affections on things above not on the things of the earth. You will be standing before God sooner than you think.

Just like Adam and Eve, we also make choices everyday.  How we use our time, and what we invest our energy and resources in pursuit of.  God is going to judge us based on what we really cared about in this life.

The choice for Adam and was essentially between submission to the will of God and self- determination.
I believe that living for Jesus daily means that you are striving to deny yourself and submit to the perfect will of the Father each and everyday.
