NOT DEATH=BUT LIFE



















NOT DEATH=BUT LIFE


From the MOMENT we are BORN
We are on a journey-
A JOURNEY that will end
In our death from this world


But IF we live well-
We will die well-
And it is IN THE LIVING of
Our lives that really counts


EACH day is a BLESSING
Make it count-BLESS someone else
With something from your life


“So DEATH is at work in us-
But LIFE IN YOU” 2 Corinthians 4:12


MAKE your life count
Do something GOOD for
Someone else every day


And you will LIVE ETERNALLY in Christ


Bob Dylan=the great poet/lyricist wrote:
“He NOT busy being BORN-
Is busy dying”


We are BORN AGAIN-
In God=we are born again
In CHRIST=every time


We REDEDICATE our lives with
PURPOSE to God and Christ


Psalm 90 says we
ARE given 70 years-
EIGHTY years IF we are strong


ENOUGH TIME to get it right
Enough time to learn that
The PURPOSE of life


IS to DEDICATE our lives
To God=and to
BE of SERVICE to others


“Our DAYS may come
To 70 years-
Or eighty


IF strength endures


Yet the best of them
Are but trouble
And sorrow


For they QUICKLY pass
And we fly away” Psalm 90:10


DEDICATE your lives to God-
Live LIVES of service
For others=KEEP the commandments


And live in ETERNITY
With God and Jesus


It's NOT death=BUT LIFE
That is important=and the
DEDICATION of your life
For God and OTHERS=for the
SAKE OF HUMANITY


“I myself-
Have SELECTED your fellow Levites


From among the ISRAELITES
As a GIFT to you


DEDICATED to the Lord
To do the work
At the tent of meeting” Numbers 18:6


SOMEDAY we will die=but if
We have the PROPER FAITH-
We will HAVE the eternal life
That we RECEIVE through the GRACE
Of Jesus


Our SUN will never fail
And our life will LIVE ON FOREVER


“'GOD will REPAY each person-
According to what
They have done'


To those who by persistence-
In DOING GOOD-seek glory-
Honor and immortality-


He will GIVE eternal life” Romans 2:6-7


YES FRIENDS=it's NOT our death
That is most important-
It is our LIVES-
And HOW we have lived them


Hopefully in SERVICE and in DEDICATION
To God and to others


Yes=death MAY be at work in us


BUT the Life=LOVE=and JOY of Jesus
Will live forever and ever


Dear LORD=Dear Jesus=
BE OUR LIGHT IN THIS WORLD
