Touching Heaven

There are some people that experience glimpses of the afterlife simply because of the people that surround them?  Do you?  Believe that is?  If there is an afterlife, then you should make sure you are ready and going to that better place or else face the alternative which may not be so pretty...

Mark

10:17-27

 

17 As He was setting out on a journey, a man ran up to Him and knelt before Him, and asked Him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do so that I may inherit eternal life?” 18 But Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good except God alone. 19 You know the commandments: ‘Do not murder, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not give false testimony, Do not defraud, Honor your father and mother.’” 20 And he said to Him, “Teacher, I have kept all these things from my youth.” 21 Looking at him, Jesus showed love to him and said to him, “One thing you lack: go and sell all you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.” 22 But he [a]was deeply dismayed by [b]these words, and he went away grieving; for he was one who owned much property.

23 And Jesus, looking around, *said to His disciples, “How hard it will be for those who are wealthy to enter the kingdom of God!” 24 And the disciples were amazed at His words. But Jesus responded again and *said to them, “Children, how hard it is to enter the kingdom of God! 25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.” 26 And they were even more astonished, and said to Him, “[c]Then who can be saved?” 27 Looking at them, Jesus *said, “With people it is impossible, but not with God; for all things are possible with God.”

There are so many people that want money and power but these are meaningless when it comes to eternity...  You wonder what some think when they think of all they have...  I have come to realize that money is a necessary evil but I live one day at a time and let God do his thing...  A simpler way of life that gives me what I need from day to day...  My goal is to get rid of more stuff...  When I leave this earth some day I want what I have on this earth to be minimal...

Desert Rescue

Need some brain candy?  Why not read this romance?  It was an easy and riveting read containing romance and suspense all rolled up into one.  Sometimes your brain just needs some brain candy...  Romances have always been easy reads...  I read way too many of these in high school...
