Only One Life

When my wife was a young girl, her family had a plaque on their wall with a wonderful quote. It said, “Only one life will soon be past; only what’s done for Christ will last.”

It’s true, isn’t it? We only have a short time here on earth to save souls. Nobody knows how long they have left to live. So we must make the most of every opportunity. Because, as that quote reminds us, only things of eternal value will last into Heaven.

The exciting thing is that each one of us has a unique role to play in God’s plan of redemption and salvation. Ephesians 2:10 is a super verse to remember when it comes to our special calling: “For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”

God has placed you exactly where you are, with the talents you’ve got, for a reason! You know people in ways that nobody else does. Maybe you’re the only Christian friend they have. Perhaps you’re the only person praying for them. Isn’t that an amazing thought?

It’s no coincidence; God has put you in certain relationships for a specific purpose. Share your faith and trust God for the results!
