I am Here on Earth for Just a Little While

Life can be described as

a mist

a breath

a wisp of smoke

There are only 2 certainties we can count on in life:

Life is brief.

Life is temporary.

So don't get too attached!  We are just passing through.  Scripture says, "All they think about is this life here on the earth.  But we are citizens of heaven, where the Lord Jesus Christ lives".  Folks, we are not living for the here and now, giving in to the temptations around us.   The Bible clearly states, "You're cheating on God.  If all you want is your own way, flirting with the world every chance you get, you end up enemies of God and His way." 

Knowing this should change your values radically.  Your life in eternity should be changing how you shape your life and your decisions.

Life has nothing to do with material abundance!!  In God's eyes, we are heroes if we faithfully serve Him.  It is NOT in wealth, success and power. 

Why are we spending time on things that are so temporary?

I ask you this:

How should the fact that life on earth is just a temporary assigment change the way you are living right now?

We are Christ's ambassadors and this world is not your home.  Don't get to comfortable here.  And don't trade your soul for your ego.

While you are on this temporary assignment, I encourage you to think about how you are spending your time and your money.

What legacy are you leaving behind?

Join Help Me Help You Help Them and leave a legacy behind of what it really means to step out and live this brief life meaningfully.  Join us on a mission trip.  Join us in sharing God's love to others.  Show your children, family and friends that what you do through God's strength and direction is what matters. 

Live that legacy you have always wanted to leave behind.  Now is the time!
