What Will Your Reward Be?

“Behold, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to everyone according to what he has done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End. Blessed are those who wash their robes, that they may have the right to the tree of life and may go through the gates into the city. Outside are the dogs, those who practice magic arts, the sexually immoral, the murderers, the idolaters and everyone who loves and practices falsehood.” – Revelations 22:12-15

I gave my life to Jesus Christ earlier on in life but I am just beginning to come into my own with my Christian walk. I am just learning to understand my purpose and doing all I can to live for God. I think getting along in age has a great deal to do with it because consequently as time passes, you get a feeling that you are running out of time. Let’s face it – no one will be around forever. This realm is just for a time so whatever time I do have left I intend to use it to promote the Word of God.

The Lord is indeed coming back. We do not know when but He will be back. It is important for us all to examine the works of our hands. These are really crucial and trying times. What are you doing for the Lord? Are all your efforts strictly for self-gratification? Can you see anything or anyone bigger or greater than yourself? What motivates you? What or who drives you? What controls your day? Take some time to think of eternity rather than right now. All that we see are temporal; what matters most are those things that we cannot see but that are eternal. We need to begin to shift our attention off ourselves and onto the Lord. We will all receive a reward in heaven. What will your reward be?
