LIVING FOREVER
Wisdom of Solomon 5:15-16
But the righteous live forever,
And their reward is with the Lord;
And their care is by the Most High.
Therefore they shall receive a kingly dwelling of dignity
And a crown of beauty from the hand of the Lord,
Because He will shelter them with His right hand
And protect them with His arm.
Personal Challenge
I believe it is innate in every human being to desire to live forever. This is why we do so much with exercising and beautification. God created us to be eternal beings, to live with Him forever in His Kingdom. He also created us with free will, and we exercised that free will by choosing to seek knowledge and life separate from Him. The consequences of this choice have been death and separation from Him and His Kingdom. Jesus rectified this. It is only through Him that we can live the kind of righteous life that these verses call for. Glory be to God!
