OUR ETERNAL FUTURE

 

OUR ETERNAL FUTURE

 

We have a past=

We LIVE in the present

And we have=A FUTURE

 

But from an ETERNAL PERSPECTIVE

Our future is=with God

OUR ETERNAL FUTURE

 

“And the master commended

That DISHONEST STEWARD

For acting prudently”                                                                                                          Luke 16:8

 

The dishonest steward=in the

Gospel today=exercises PRUDENCE

About the future

 

He gets ahead=but he has

UNHOLY MOTIVES

 

But for those of us

Who are REAL CHRISTIANS=

We always keep an EYE

On the prize=

OUR ETERNAL FUTURE

With God=our Holy Father

And with Jesus

 

PLANNING for one’s future

Is fantastic=but doing so

WHILE we are cheating someone

Is not

 

The Christian life-

OFFERS a wider view=

A perspective=that always

KEEPS in mind=

That HEAVEN is our goal

 

It MOTIVATES our thinking=

Our planning=and

Our daily ACTIONS

 

“Consider the blameless-

Observe the upright=

A FUTURE AWAITS

Those who seek peace”                                                                                                           Psalm 37:37

 

“There is surely

A FUTURE=for you

And your hope

Will not be=cut off”                                                                                                              Proverbs 23:18

 

“For I am convinced

That neither=death nor life

 

Neither angels nor demons=

Neither the present

NOR THE FUTURE

Nor any powers

 

Neither height nor depth=

Nor anything else-

In all creation

Will be

 

Able to separate us

From the love of God

That is in=Christ Jesus our Lord”                                                                                     Romans 8:38-39

 

OUR ETERNAL FUTURE

Is with the=love of God

The love of Jesus=

We will spend

OUR ETERNITY with them

 

Our PATH in life

Is NOT paved=with deception

With dishonesty=

Or with SELFISH MOTIVES

 

The MASTER of souls=

The LOVE of God our Father

And Jesus=will live

In us forever=

WITH OUR ETERNAL FUTURE

Dear Lord=we pray

That we are=GOOD stewards

And you guide us DAILY

Towards heaven=and your love

OUR ETERNAL FUTURE!

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our FOREVER living-loving-HOLY FATHER God!
