Wise For A Lifetime --- A Fool For All Eternity
There was a man who only had a week to live in his house before he would move into his new home where he would reside for the rest of his life. Absurdity of absurdities, instead of focusing on his new dwelling, he devoted his time, energies, and resources to furnishing his old house that he was about to vacate.
It's a made-up story. It never really happened. But, you know, in one sense, that is a true story in many people's lives. Many people take great pains to provide for this life. "I don't just think of this year. No, I think ahead. I think and plan for 40 years from now." They would say.
The problem is that that's all for them. They never think and plan for the next 40 million years or the next 40 billion years or the next 40 trillion years and more. They are wise for a lifetime but a fool for all eternity.
My friend, be truly wise. Don't just think of this year. Don't just think of this life. Think of the life after this life in eternity.
Avail yourself of the eternal life that is in Christ Jesus. He died for your sins and was raised again from the dead. That if you repent and trust in Him, life eternal will be yours.
