John 16:33---These
things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye
shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
If you look
at the lives of the people in your life who have money, power, fame, and
worldly success, look deep and you may see something lacking.
Look deep
and you may see the worldly reward of others often comes with spiritual
emptiness.
Look deep
within yourself and you will see it is better to have inner peace, even in your
pain, than to have only your worldly rewards and live in spiritual emptiness.
Many of the
people you know only live for worldly rewards.
Their inner
life, if you could see it, would be a life full of emptiness, torment,
meaninglessness, depression, and loneliness.
It is
because people live for worldly rewards and receive emptiness, torment,
meaninglessness, depression, and loneliness that so many people drink, use
drugs become addicted, as well as living a life full of anger and hate.
Think long
and hard about this issue.
Do you want
the world or do you want Christ alive in you?
Satan will
offer you the rewards of the world, but do you want the rewards of the world
and all the pain in the world?
God will not
offer you the world.
God will
offer you His only begotten Son dying on the cross for you, hoping above all
hope you accept Christ and receive His reward of eternal life.
What reward
will you choose today?
