To Everything there is a season
There is a season for man on Earth, the earth is not our permanent home. If we are here for a season, we need to have an understanding of why we are here.
"To everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under the heaven."
Ecclesiastes 3:1
Are we here to have a good life-enjoy ourselves by satisfying the desires of the flesh, make as much money as possible, acquire power and influence or is there more to life?
What follows this life? Is it something we should be interested in? At the end of our time on Earth, we must give account of our stewardship to God. Where we spend eternity depends on what we do while on Earth. Our time here is comparatively short and it stands to reason that the purpose is to prepare for eternity. The Lord Jesus Christ told us in Matthew 6:33 what the purpose of our time on Earth is-
"But seek ye first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you".
Are you seeking the kingdom and God's righteousness or are you seeking the things Good promises to add unto you? Remember these things will not follow you to eternity. The time to prepare for eternity is now.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful word of God, May the Almighty father keep us to always do so till the very end
