Do you remember that really sick feeling that you get in the pit of your stomach when you show up to class and are not aware that the test date had changed? I recently experience that and it directed my thoughts to a spiritual avenue...
I walked in to class on Tuesday to find out that my test had changed to that very day; One week sooner! I panicked!! I had missed the class before because the kids were on spring break and I did not have a sitter. I texted a girl in class the day I missed and she never mentioned it! At first, I wanted to be mad at everyone else BUT it boiled down to the fact that it was MY class, MY responsiblilty, MY grade, MY career plans that were on the line and I should have been prepared! Fortunately, the professor let me come in the next morning to take it BUT it reminded me of my firm belief that there will be NO second chances when it comes to life after death!
I feel strong in my belief that every breath this side of death is your only second chance! I am so thankful that I received the only preparation that I will ever need when I asked Jesus into my heart. Of course along the way I aquire experience that prepares me to deal with new trials that come my way, as well as, a means to help others on their journey. However, the initial YES sealed my hope to heaven when I leave earth.
I have a blog to post of my testimony in detail when God impresses me to do so.
That sick feeling of not being prepared for the test had a resolution. There are no resolutions after your soul leaves this human body. I cannot imagine the feeling of "IF" I would have believe on Jesus Christ. When Gods spirit comes by to visit you; please respond "YES" and be sure your prepared for the next billion years.
May God Bless You Each :)
