Can you recall to mind the preparation that takes place prior to you heading to the airport to catch your flight? Prior to your departure you pack everything, you conduct a thorough walk through in your hotel room to make sure that nothing is left behind....and then it's check out time...now you're focused because the systematic steps taken prior to your arrival at the airport has aligned your mind with the departure...but there's yet another process: check in baggage, go through security check points and get to the gate that is essentially the doorway to your departure....this is also applicable to school, work and life. Elementary, Middle School, High School and College...each division requires progression or progress which ultimately leads to the students departure....at work there are three positions: you can resign, be layed off or get fired...in any case you should be prepared to leave and move to bigger and better things....or embrace the fact that the company has decided they no longer want to retain you...nothing lasts forever and being prepared keeps you in control....as far as life is concerned, no matter your economic status, neighborhood you live in, or the type of car you drive, you will ultimately cross the bridge called death...folks don't like talking about it perhaps that is why we have so many people not ready or prepared for death....when we're not prepared we leave our family and loved ones to figure out how the burial and services will pan out. Spirituality speaking each of us has to make a decision in regards to where we want to spend eternity....heaven or hell...thousands of people complain about the smothering summer heat, but if they fail to prepare for eternity by confessing with their mouth the Lord Jesus and believing in their heart that God raised Him from the dead they shall be saved" they will find themselves in far worse conditions (i.e., a firey furnance)...before you exit this life into eternity....I encourage you to choose Christ for your life #Areyoupreparedforyourdeparture?
