As we journey through this fleeting life, let us never forget the purpose for which we were created. The chief end of man is to glorify God, and to enjoy Him forever!
But how do we fulfill this noble purpose?
The answer is simple by living for Christ!
To live for Christ is to surrender all that we are and have, to His lordship. It is to deny ourselves,
take up our cross,
and follow Him.
It is to seek His glory in all we do, and to find our joy in Him alone.
As the apostle Paul so boldly declared, "For me, to live is Christ" not my own desires, not my own ambitions, but Christ!
Let us not be deceived by the seductive pleasures of this poor world. Let us not be swayed by the whispers of the enemy, who would have us believe that our lives are our own to live as we please.
No, dear friends, our lives are not our own. We have been redeemed by the precious blood of Jesus, and we belong to Him!
So let us live for Him, and Him alone. Let us seek His glory in every aspect of our lives and let us find our joy in His presence. Only as we live for Christ, can we find genuine felicity in this life,
glorify God in all that we do,
and enjoy Him forever in glory!
Only those who sincerely live for Christ, will find that to die is gain!

Romans 14:8 ... For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.
Philippians 1:21 ... For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. ❤
