Having a daily devotional reading like this one helps me to keep focused on heaven and worthwhile priorities. A lot of people would probably say that living the Christian life is going to church on Sunday, following rules, and not hurting anyone in the process. But it’s much more. Following Christ is a change of heart, living on purpose with the hope and reality of living forever in a perfect relationship with everyone, everything created, and especially with God Himself.
The following is a short excerpt from a great book I recently read: "You have been made for a person and a place. That person is Jesus, and the place is heaven." Excerpt From Through the Eyes of a Lion Levi Lusko
“O God, you are my God, earnestly I seek you; my soul thirsts for you, my body longs for you, in a dry and weary land where there is no water” (Psalm 63:1). We may imagine we want a thousand different things, but God is the one we really long for. His presence brings satisfaction; his absence brings thirst and longing.” - Randy Alcorn, Heaven
