| In order to make your life count on this earth we must remember how short life is. It is true your life has a purpose, but if you are not right with God and ready for the next life, nothing is right. There was a young man in the days of the Lord on earth who, when part of the law was quoted to him, replied, “Master, all these have I observed from my youth” (Mark 10:20). However, the Lord said, “One thing thou lackest” (Mark 10:21). His life on earth and toward his fellow-man was impeccable, but he lacked the very thing he needed most: salvation and a right relationship with God and the Lord Jesus. If this is not right, nothing is right! |
