WHEN THE SUNSET OF OUR LIFE REACHES IT”S PEAK, HOW WILL THE ENDING OF OUR STORY READ?
When someone dies it allows each of us to look back over our life and focus on what our self worth will be to others in this short probationary period God has given us from birth to death to make a difference in the lives of others.
Consistent with this, what is the time span we are looking at. The Psalmist tells us “The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away.” Ps. 90:10 (KJV)
As I begin to meditate on the meaning of the words, “if I can help someone along the way, then my living shall not be in vain.” It becomes personal as I look over my own life thinking, WHEN THE SUNSET OF MY LIFE REACHES ITS PEAK, HOW WILL THE ENDING OF MY STORY READ?
At most funerals the obituary that is read is all about one’s Character and the life they lived from day to day before they died. The question we must now ask our self, how can we make a difference in everyone’s lives along this journey Christ has placed us on.
In addition, how can our legacy have a positive and loving impact on others, IN THE FINAL SUNSET OF OUR LIFE. Now put
yourself in the place of someone reminiscing over your life, then tell yourself, if I am a Child of God who has lived by the precepts of God’s anointing power, then everyone will be able to say, I am a better person because we were a part of there lives.
My friends today through God’s anointing Spirit, focus on the talents and resources God has allowed you to have, and ask yourself how can I benefit those around me, as I Die to self daily while allowing Christ to transform, more and more of me, until He has total control and how can our passion be TO HELP SOMEONE ALONG THE WAY ON THIS JOURNEY TO THE PROMISE LAND.
My friends as we approach the final days of this life’s history there will be a sharp contrast from a child of God and those who follow the forces of evil. For Paul tells us in 2 Timothy 3:1-5: (the message bible) “Don’t be naive. There are difficult times ahead.
As the end approaches, people are going to be self-absorbed, money-hungry, self-promoting, stuck-up, profane, contemptuous 
of parents, crude, coarse, dog-eat-dog, unbending, slanderers, impulsively wild, savage, cynical, treacherous, ruthless, bloated windbags, addicted to lust, and allergic to God.
They’ll make a show of religion, but behind the scenes they’re animals. Stay clear of these people.” But A Child of God in these last days, our mission statement must come from Christ own words when He tells us.
“A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.” John 13:34-35 (KJV)
In addition, “Do you want to be shown, you foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless? Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up his son Isaac on the altar? You see that faith was active along with his works, and faith was
completed by his works; and the Scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”—and he was called a friend of God. You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone.” James 2:20-24 (ESV)
My friends, “Watch what God does, and then you do it, like children who learn proper behavior from their parents. Mostly what God does is love you. Keep company with him and learn a life of love. Observe how Christ loved us. His love was not cautious but extravagant. He didn’t love in order to get something from us but to give everything of himself to us,” Ephesians 5:1-2 (The Message Bible)
And if we Love like that. AT THE SUNSET OF OUR LIFE WHEN IT HAS REACHED IT”S PEAK, THE ENDING OF OUR STORY WILL READ HE LOVED?
So my friends today. Stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
