All Things Are Yours In Christ
You can't take anything with you when you leave this world.
When you look around at this world, you may think that the luxuries of this life look pretty good. In truth, it's all just ashes and dust. We should lay our treasures(good works) up in heaven because that is the only thing we can take away from this life.
I Corinthians 3:21-23
21 Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours;
22 Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours;
23 And ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's.

As the above text explains, we ALL belong to God. We have free will in this life, we can choose our path. In reality, there are only two paths. As for me and my family, we will serve the Lord.
I Corinthians 4:5
5 Therefore judge nothing before the time, until the Lord come, who both will bring to light the hidden things of darkness, and will make manifest the counsels of hearts; and then shall every man have praise of God
Don't judge someone too early. If you have that family member or friend that just keeps messing up, won't put down the drugs, or is just stubborn then keep planting the seed when you have a chance. I'm not saying to beat people over the head with the Good News but when you have a chance let them know that Jesus is the way.
If you have time check out my last article, O Death Where Is Thy Sting, here.
I love you all.
