If you were to die today - some things to meditate upon.

Why do you insist in feeding what ever lust of the flesh that besets you?

Why do you feel that feeding your flesh is of more importance than feeding your soul?

Why do you have such anger against God when he does not jump to your aid at the first sign of trouble?

Why do you hold an offense against Him, because His will supersedes yours?

Why do you loose trust in Him because to your view He did not answer your prayers?

Do you not remember that He became flesh that He might be tempted as you are now tempted?

Do you not remember that He resisted the temptation to please His flesh?

Do you not remember His sufferings?

Do you not remember that He was bruised for your iniquities?

Do you not remember that He suffered unto death for you?

Why have you not submitted your whole soul to Him and resisted the devil?

Do you not remember that it is written, that if you submit your self to God and resist the devil He will flee from you?

Your flesh will die, it will perish, but your soul is eternal. How is any fleeting earthly pleasure worth your eternal soul?

Don’t be angry at God, for all things that occur, are for your eternal benefit. When pain and grief and troubles come your way, Trust Him, and Know that He has walked that same path before you ever did. And He was tempted in all points as you are now tempted, but without sin.

We have so little time left, and we can’t afford to be frivolous with the life that has been given to us, for it is our proving ground. What greater test when we suffer grief, and loss, or disease and sickness. Satan comes in and tells us, “Well if God loved you, or if God were truly real, surely He would not allow you to suffer so. Why bother to serve the one who does not meet your needs, or hear your prayers.”

Listen, God tests us, and tries us, and allows our Faith to be tempted, He seeks to purify us, that we might be fit for His eternal Kingdom. Can you trust and lean on Him and take of His strength to remain faithful unto death?

You could die today, is your flesh truly of more value to you than your soul?
