Pauline’s married!

 me and pauline

So pretty right ;)

And after her wedding, I went for service at jw! Might as well, since I was already there, and sermon will be different from sunday’s sermon cos it’s a guest speaker.

I must say, the praise and worship atmosphere is really different at jw. It’s so much easier, and the presence is more distinct haha. Don’t really know how else to describe it. It’s just that particular feeling of joy, can’t get anywhere else. :) If I ever felt the presence of God, that would be it. :)

And John Bevere, our guest speaker, man..he’s so full of life! And so joyful! He looks like he’s 30, but he’s actually around 50 years old. And he spoke from the ground instead of on the stage, but he spoke with so much energy. Quite unbelievable haha. Plus he spoke really fast.

But his message is life-changing. It’s from a part of his book, Driven by Eternity: Making Your Life Count Today & Forever. It’s about how a lot of people miss their calling in life, but at the end of time at the judgment seat of Christ, they’ll have to account for everything they did on this earth.

What we do with the cross determiines where we’ll spend eternity.

The way we live as believers determines how we will spend eternity.

At the judgment seat, we won’t be judged for our sins cos the blood of Christ has washed them away. We’ll be judged according to how we live life as believers. And if the things we bring with us gets burned up with fire, then it means we’ve basically wasted our time on earth.

1 Cor 3:11-15

11 For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
12 Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw,
13
each one’s work will become clear; for the Day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and the fire will test each one’s work, of what sort it is.
14
If anyone’s work which he has built on it endures, he will receive a reward.
15
If anyone’s work is burned, he will suffer loss; but he himself will be saved, yet so as through fire.

Our time on earth is so so short compared to eternity. Eternity is more than a thousand, a million, a billion years, because those years can still be counted. Eternity cannot.

A lot of people choose not to think about eternity. But ignoring something doesn’t mean it’s not going to happen.

Eternity’s going to happen, whether we like it or not. We can choose where and how we’re going to spend eternity, but only in this life.

Every moment is precious.
