From dust we are and to dust we shall return (Genesis 3:19)
This curse has been affecting all humans today even the animals. Life is full of hardship and suffering but we still have hope. In the Bible book of 1corithians 10:31 there the apostle advice us to do all things for God's glory. One way of doing all things for God's glory is seen in verse 32 of 1corithians 10 in that verse the apostle advices Christians not to be a stumbling block to other Christian in the congregation. We want to treat everyone with love from the heart because the most hight God is a loving God and if he sees us exhibiting love for others he will be proud of us. Now as Christians we all know that when we die we are going to return to dust but is there any hope for us? The answer is yes, consider what is recorded in Acts 15:14 it says that "God will resurrect the righteous ones" who are the righteous ones? They are those who are Christians and obey the law so if you abide to the law of God be confident that God will resurrect you back even if you die. God will still resurrect your love ones back to life. Let's all imitate our Lord Jesus who was humiliated on earth and even killed but God raised him to heaven as a king and a ruler.
From dust we are and to dust we shall return and we cannot avoid this faith but we are confident that the true God will resurrect us back to life and we will dwell in his humble abode.
The moral lesson here are:
- we want to give a helpful hand to others and one way to do this is by rendering charity service to them (Luke 6:38)
2)we should not be proud because no matter how rich we are we shall still change to dust when we die just like a rat so we want to stop being proud and looking down at others (proverbs 16:18)
3)we should do all things for God's glory so that he will remember us when it's time to resurrect the dead (1corithians 10:31)
If we do all these things God will surely remember us and we can be confident that even though we die and return back to the dust God will remember us and resurrect us to his humble abode
Life is like a circle. It starts and end with humans as dusts. Thanks for your contribution to SteemChurch.

Thanks so much @steemchurch
Fine writeup from you.
I do not agree with this sentence,
Life is the longest thing you will ever experience. There are so many bad things happening in the world today, that doesn't mean that everyone is evil. The bible also talks about resurrection of the dead, so there is hope.Thanks for the correction

@jaff8 you are right, there are still good things to live for and life is precious too.
Yes of course.
What matter is when we resurrect we should end up in heaven and work begins now
Yes that's the point
Vanity upon vanity all remains.
We’re just an empty vessel without Christ.
He’s the portal and we’re the clay.
Nice post
