Our days on this earth are numbered. No one knows how long they have left. That is why it is very important that we live each day to honor God. Don't put it off because you assume you have time to repent and come to God. We can't waste a single second living a worldly life, assuming we have time and can change whenever we are ready. We need to live our lives to live an eternity in heaven. You don't need to be perfect to come to Jesus you just need to be ready to have a relationship with him and he will handle the rest. He will change the desires of your heart and help you to walk away from worldly things.
When we are living a surrendered life we need to be wise. We need to fill our hearts with God's word. That way we have the knowledge of what God expects and know who he is so we know what is from him and what is from the world. A lack of knowledge is one of the easiest ways to fall back into a worldly life. Don't fall into the traps. Fill yourself with God's word, strive to honor him in all things, and live your life to bring him Glory.
Prayer:
Father we love you, we want to be faithful servants father. Help us to be full of your word so that we know how to live and walk in wisdom. Give us a hunger for more of your word, reveal to us your message when we read it. Help us to seek the path of truth and light Lord, give us your discernment in all things, in Jesus name we pray Amen.
Scripture:
Look carefully then how you walk, not as unwise but as wise, making the best use of the time, because the days are evil.
Ephesians 5:15-16 ESV
