A FEW DAYS

“For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.”

1 Thessalonians 4:16, 17

King James Version

Charles H. Gabriel wrote the hymn “Where The Gates Swing Outward Never”.  “Just a few more days to be filled with praise, And to tell the old, old story; Then, when twilight falls, and my Savior calls, I shall go to Him in glory.”

We only have a few days to tell others about Jesus and His unconditional love for them. However, we can talk all day about Jesus and what a difference He makes but if they don’t see the difference He makes in our heart and life, they are not going to believe us. Remember, “actions speak louder than words”.  

It is so very important that our children and grandchildren see the difference Jesus has made in our heart and life.  What about you? When your children and grandchildren see the things you do and hear the words you say, do they know you love Jesus?  May God have mercy on us if our children and grandchildren don’t accept Jesus as personal Saviour because of our words and our actions.
