CREATED FOR ETERNITY
Men and women without God are helpless and hopeless human
beings. We do well to remember that sin is to the human nature
what cancer is to the human body!
Who can argue with the fact that sin has ruined us?
Our feverish activity is only one sign of what is wrong with
us—sin has plunged us into the depths and so marked us with
mortality that we have become brother to the clay—but God
never meant it to be so.
Men and women may argue and make excuses, but it does
not change the fact that in our human society we are
completely surrounded by three marks of the ancient curse:
Everything is recent, temporal and transient! That is why the
Holy Spirit whispers faithfully, reminding us of the Christ of
God, eternity walking in flesh, God Almighty come to live
among us and to save—actually to give us eternity!
This we know: When we turn our faces toward the Eternal
One, asking, “God have mercy on me, a sinner,” we are finally
being what God intended us to be in the first place!
Almighty God and Eternal Father, help me to journey through
the coming year with a new set of eyes. Enable me to see life
from Your lofty, eternal perspective.
