What Matters Most in Life

"There is no remembrance of former things, nor will there be any remembrance of things that are to come by those who will come after."  Ecclesiastes 1:11
Solomon, the king of Israel who is listed in the Bible as the wisest man who ever lived, coined the phrase "there is nothing new under the sun."  It may seem like new ideas or behaviors are unique for our lifetime, but are they?  What in this life is truly important and will be passed on into eternity?  Only those things that touch eternity:  sharing our faith and helping others find an eternal relationship with God through Jesus.  Very few people's contributions in life will stand through time.  It's important to put our efforts and time into spiritual pursuits daily.  Daily devotions, Bible studies, Small Groups, serving others in ministry, sharing our faith - these will stand the test of time and eternity.

Lord, help us place the most importance of my days in this life in doing Your will and business.  Impress us with Your will, empower us with Your strength, let us live in the Light of eternity in this life and the next.  In Jesus' Name, Amen.  Have a blessed, eternal day, Church Chicks!  Go light your world :)
