Life Is Too Short

“Life is too short.”  How many times have you heard that?  It is true; life is too short, but the meaning behind the words differs greatly from person to person.  To many it means life is too short to waste the opportunity to live it up, follow your wildest dreams and fulfill every fantasy; don’t miss out on tasting the goodies your flesh longs to try. If you don’t do it now life will be over and you will have missed your chance.  I also believe life is too short, but not at all for those reasons.  Life is too short compared to eternity to throw my life away serving “self” in this very brief “here and now” and ruin my position in God’s kingdom when Christ returns.  That eternal kingdom is “real life” and it will be forever.  This tiny little bit of physical existence from the cradle to the grave has no comparison to our future existence in glory.  Faith in Christ gives us citizenship in that kingdom; but how we live for Christ determines our position and place of responsibility in that kingdom forever.  Life is too short to blow all of eternity just to sow a few wild oats in this withering, frail and dying body of mine.
