What sort of film will it be?
An adventure story about all your travels and the people you met and the things you did?
Or a great romance and a story of love winning despite all adversity and difficulties and prejudice?
Perhaps your life has been one of courage struggling against illness, or poverty or some other obstacle that life throws in our way sometimes.
A comedy maybe? It perhaps fits your character and the way you go through life. Or the other extreme, a horror movie ... and so on ... and so on ...
What movie would characterise your life? Is it perhaps a mixture of all these styles ?
Now imagine you are at the cinema for the première showing of this film made to honour you and your life and contribution to society and this world.
Everyone who is everyone is there. Famous people, family and friends, and cinema and TV critics from all over the world.
Also, sitting next to you watching the film is Jesus.
What would He think of your film? Of your life?
Let's think about that for a few moments ... ... ...
But wait ... the film is not over yet. Do you realise that right now, this very moment, you have a great opportunity to make sure that your film ... your life ... will have a happy ending.
Then Jesus, sitting beside you, will turn to you and with a smile say, "Thank you!"
...this reminds me of walking in the sand. Few of us really leave footprints that last.
ReplyDeleteDon't walk on wet cement. Your footprints will last when it dries out.
DeleteGod bless, Tom.
Jesus should be the only critic we care about, Victor. Love this!
ReplyDeleteAmen Martha. Thank you.
DeleteGod bless you.
Well done, good and faithful servant.
ReplyDeleteWill He say that to me?
I hope so.
I hope so too, Sandi.
DeleteGod bless always.
Something to think about.
ReplyDeleteIndeed Bill. A daily thought.
DeleteGod bless.
Honestly, I'd be ashamed to sit in a theater watching the story of my life. I'm so thankful for His mercy, gently realigning my footsteps onto the right path.
ReplyDeleteIndeed Mevely. A daily walk with Christ by our side.
DeleteWill you invite me to the première showing of your life story?
God bless you and yours.
Mine would sure be a comedy and Jesus would probably say "see, I did try to tell you", and I would say thanks for living it with me.
ReplyDeleteYes, thank you Jesus for being with "me" (with us) every day of our lives.
DeleteGod bless, Brian.
That gives us all something to ponder. :)
ReplyDeleteGod bless, Happyone.
DeleteDearest Victor,
ReplyDeleteGuess it had to be a movie in many parts and yes, Jesus is seated through all of them—he's our BEST GPS through life and the sure guarantee for reaching the END destination.
Hugs,
Mariette
Amen Mariette. Very wise words.
DeleteGod bless.
