It never ends with you!

It never ends with you!

But the love of the Lord remains forever with those who fear him. His salvation extends to the children’s children of those who are faithful to his covenant, of those who obey his commandments! Psalms 103:17‭-‬18 NLT

If you had ever thought that you did not have to render account of your life to anyone, today's extract will make you think again. If you ever thought that you did not owe anyone any explanation for your actions, then read the extract above again. If you have believed the lie that not all actions have eternal consequences, please read the passage above again. It is a settled matter that there is no action without an equal and opposite reaction; everything I do today is a seed sown in eternity with its reward or consequence also steeped in eternity.

For all who fear God, there is an assurance that no amount of riches can buy - you have God's eternal love. Now, you may think it is something valueless, as if cannot be quantified on monetary terms, but think for a moment about Abraham. Can you quantify his blessings? Can you place a value on the benefits we all still receive from him, centuries after he died? David was promised an eternal kingdom, all because he walked with God. He wasn't perfect, but he loved God with everything he had. He wasn't the best of persons, but God was his sole pursuit and love interest. Check out the lives of the children after these two. Does the promise of God in the extract above ring true in their lives?

Solomon wasn't the best of persons too. He started so well, God blessed him. He was the only king of both Israel and Judah who did not fight a single war. I think this was partly because he left his dependence on God and depended on foreign alliances, even with nations that God had warned him about. Yet, something was working for him - his father's life investment of love. The people of Israel were not the ideal people too. They were heady, stubborn, difficult and disobedient. But is there a doubt as to why they were so favoured? Someone had sown a seed that God could not ignore.

Today, watch your seeds, and your life investments. You just may never know which generation after you will reap the rewards/consequences of your actions today. Obey God, it may be the difference between an eternity of regrets or a generational impact. The choice is yours; his time of favour is here.
