Judgment Day
Judgment Day before God is a scary thought, because we usually associate it with being confronted with all His laws we broke, bad things we did.
But what if God on Judgment Day, asks you why you didn‘t follow your God-given dreams?
“For it is God which works in you both to desire and to do His good pleasure.” Philippians 2:13
What if He asks why you neglected your greatest gifts, settled for mediocrity, and didn‘t help a languishing world that needed you?
What if He wants you to explain why you listened to the voices of discouragement when you could have followed the Voice of the Great Shepherd?
“Therefore to him that knows to do good, and does it not, to him it is sin.” James 4:17
Believe me, I understand.
The moment you think about taking a step to “be somebody”, it‘s as if the whole world rises up to put you back in your place of obscurity, mediocrity, and meaninglessness.
And the loudest voice of all is the one inside your own head.
“What will people think? What will they say?”
But let’s put it in perspective.
There are 6 billion people on the planet, and you only know about 1000 of them.
What if you set aside that 1000 and their “opinion”, and be a blessing to the rest?
You probably won’t ever know what most people think and say about you anyway.
But one thing is certain; you will know what your King thinks and says about you, for you will appear before Him one day.
“You are the salt of the earth…You are the light of the world”
Get busy.
