Living Forever

My husband and I recently traveled to St. Augustine, Florida, to celebrate our twentieth anniversary. Visiting the Fountain of Youth delivered a Christian message. People, like Ponce de Leon hoped to find water that would restore youth, and others have looked for ways to live forever. But Christians know the truth; we will all live forever. The question is where will it be -- in a place of torment or a place of bliss with restored bodies.

And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal (Matthew 25:46).

Too often we look to the world to give us what we desire, but worldly answers can lead to trouble. God has the answers we need, and they're found in His Word. Make daily Bible study and prayer part of your routine. Rely on God to direct your path. He has promised to supply all your needs.

But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19).

You don't need to go looking for a fountain of youth, magic potions, genies to bestow wishes, or a fairy godmother. All you need is Jesus. He is Living Water that satisfies as nothing else can. By accepting Him into your life, you'll live with Him forevermore. If you don't, you'll spend eternity with Satan. Where do you want to live forever?

And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?" (John 11:26).
