Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness (2 Peter 3:11)
When we see a warning sign of a "Dead End" we still have a choice to alter our current course of life, and make changes. Peter says, knowing that this world is coming to an end should cause us to consider our way of life. Our thoughts, words ambitions, actions, and affections should be different. Our focus should be to seek after the riches of heaven than the temporariness of earth! There would only be a thin line between pursuing the world and God....what will be our choice ?? The holiness and consuming fire of our God should fill our hearts with a genuine desire for purity and godly passions!!! The atrocities and rottenness of this world should turn us to the perfections of Christ.
Let us realise each day that all these things that we SEE, HEAR and DESIRE will dissolve like smoke into thin air, what would remain is what kind of person would you and I be before God?
God bless you today as you prayerfully prepare for the new year!
