Description
The world we live in offers enticing pleasures. Many Christians have learned to navigate away from the “big” sins but struggle to find a deep purpose and meaning for their lives. A quick dose of false well-being can be gained by college degrees, financial security, relationships, position, being the parent of an exceptional child, or by helping in one’s local church. However, it’s time to live for something more. It’s time to trade up. Real blessing is gained by living for what comes next. When we learn to understand the length of our lives as compared with “forever,” a new perspective invades our minds. Now, pleasing the Lord and becoming like Jesus is all that matters. The quick-fixes of our world are no longer desired. Don’t throw away eternal rewards on the world’s treasure. You will be disappointed. Make your life count for Christ. This book is about making the most of our time in this world so that we will be honored and find incredible blessing in the next.
