Watch where you spend Eternity

Psalm 1:6 NIV
For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.

No matter how good your life is now, one day, it must end. No matter what people, friends, colleagues and all tell you, one day, a final reckoning must be done. An account of our actions must be done and a reward/ punishment must be given. If men, who are made in the image of God can devise an appraisal scheme to judge performance, how much more the God of all creation not hold his creation accountabld for their words, thoughts and actions? Could it be that we could deceive God and get anyway with it, living a thoughtless, non-accountable life? Perish the thought; an accounting will be done.

If there's anyone that understands a product and can determine its shelf life, usefulness and expiry date, why then do we treat God as if he doesn't matter? Why do we push him out of the circle of our lives, calling him only when we are in trouble and ignoring him on other occasions? Why do we treat him as a spare tyre, using him when the any of the other available options fail, but practically burying him in the wheel well of the car, not remembered except in emergency situations?

God knows the way of the Righteous because he's their only hope and focus. He only gives his peace to the man whose mind is stayed on him. He is the maker and manufacturer of every life and any life lived outside his control and influence will end up where the wicked end up.

Taks stock now: who's in charge? Who tells you what to do and when to do it and how to do it? It is a question of eternity. Where do you want to end up: heaven or hell? His time of favour is here.
