Live as though Christ died yesterday, rose from the grave today, and is coming back tomorrow.
Great advice but what does that really mean?
Well firstly, when someone you love and who loves you dies, how do you feel? Devastated, upset a little bit scared?
Secondly, if you found out the person you burried several days earlier, had risen from the grave how would you feel? Astounded, unbelieving, a little scared but ultimately still grieving for the one you love?
And lastly, when someone you love is away from you, either on holiday, with work, a forced separation or in fact any other reason, how do you feel when you know they are returning, coming home, tomorrow? I guess you’d be excited, nervous, fully of anticipation, trying to make sure you had everything sorted, in order and as close to perfect as you can manage, all so you can welcome home your loved one.
Well I think all the above would, or maybe I should say, should apply, if we are talking about Christ.
Think about your live, and how you’re living it – Do you live as though Christ died yesterday, rose from the grave today, and is coming back tomorrow?
Yesterday, Today and Forever by Vicky Beeching
Everlasting God
The years go by but you’re unchanging
In this fragile world
You are the only firm foundation
Always loving, always true
Always merciful and good, so good
Yesterday today and forever
You are the same, you never change
Yesterday today and forever
You are faithful and we will trust in You
Uncreated One
You have no end and no beginning
Earthly power fades
But there is no end to Your kingdom
Always loving, always true
Always merciful and good, so good
Yahweh, God unchanging
Yahweh, firm foundation
Yahweh, God unchanging
Yahweh, firm foundation
