When it comes to the matter of Eternal Life, it is not what we have done, or even who we are that matters. It only matters if you have a personal relationship with Christ Jesus, the Messiah and coming King. It really is, Who You Know, that counts in the most important issue we all face. How, where, and with whom will we spend Eternity.
Yesterday evening, as I was walking Husky, we happened past a soccer ball lying in the parking lot. It was beside the sidewalk, in a parking space. It would have taken but a moment to have reached down and moved the ball to the safer side of the sidewalk...
How many soccer balls do we pass every day? Lord, grant us the wisdom to perceive the soccer balls in our life; before they become weighted down by the cars of this world.

I grew up in a religious home; went to Church on Sundays and attended private Christian schools, K-12. After that I spent 18 years being very non-religious. Finally, God revealed Himself to my heart (through the prayers of friends and family, and His Holy Word; the book of Romans, in particular). I understand that while I'm a sinner, who can never be perfect (and perfection is God's standard), Jesus met that standard for me (in His life, death and ressurection). All I need do is to turn away from my sins and accept Him as Lord in my life, for His perfection to be counted to my credit.
