I think of the future, not as a space of time, but as a realm of great influence, less in terms of the number of years, but more in the reality of the impact of my existence. Deep-seated in my innermost chambers lies the thought of profound generational responsibility I feel born into. Yet I sometimes carnally consider my desires of perishable wealth in material things. Nevertheless, the thought of immortality through the legacy of my life hunts me stronger than the vainest wishes of vapour-like acquisitions and recognitions of the short sighted.
Why should we wait? For whom should we wait? How long should we wait? Clearly, there are things our Creator has determined sovereign to Him. The fool says in his heart, ‘there is no God’. Even our lives are clear evidences of His Awesome Personality. His ways, much higher than ours demand our daily subservience to His unfathomable wisdom. Oh when we see Him, we shall be like Him. Better still, the more we see Him, the more we become as He. Little wonder, we live by every word that proceeds from the mouth of the Lord. We can only cry ‘Give us our daily bread’.
My soul thirsts, my heart hungers… This I realise is a sign of life! I want more…more of Him. Life is good, let’s make it better!
