Watch your Association

Psalm 1:5 NIV
Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the assembly of the righteous.

Indeed, what you do now matters, but even more important is the decision of eternity. You cannot afford to take that decision lightly or wave it off with a wave of the hand. It is a question that must be answered and one that must be answered before this present life ends.

Who are my friends? What do I enjoy doing when it seems I'm all alone? What are my priorities and my pursuits? What do I count as important in the sum total of my life's work and worth? All these questions will settle the matter of my eternity.

You can only fool some people most times or fool all people most times, but the privilege of fooling everyone everytime is not given to any of us. We will have to answer this question and settle it before this present life ends. I ask myself again: who are my best friends? Who do I associate with? What are my priorities?

What you do with these questions determine wherd you stand when judgment comes. Would I be lost in the crowd at the judgement, without principles, without a foundation and without Christ, or would I be found in the assembly of the Righteous? It all starts with what I do NOW. His time of favour is here.
