March 20, 2022 – Food for the Soul

Sometimes I feel like I waste my time sharing the truth when there are those who do not care about their eternal soul. Because I am the person that I am, I care about the souls of people who are not saved because this is just who I am. Whenever I hear of someone passing, and it does not matter who they are, I always wonder if they were saved or not. I guess I feel this way because God loves us so much and He doesn’t want any of His children to perish in the end and be away from Him for all eternity.

Our soul is what lives on after we leave this side of heaven because it belongs to God; every human soul belongs to God. This is something that has been on my mind for a very long time. I never knew I had a heart for souls until I got saved.

I always think about what eternity is going to be like when we all get to heaven. I guess we all have thoughts of eternity in our hearts, and the thought of spending it with Jesus forever. We cannot waste the time that we have been given on this side of heaven, we must use it wisely, live, love, and enjoy every minute as if it were our last. Don’t waste time, because time is all we have. Time is another thing we take for granted. When we do not use time wisely, it can easily slip away from us, and before we know it, it is the next day and we still have not gotten anything accomplished. Time management is something I need to work on myself, I start doing something, and before I know it, I am doing something else except that I was doing at first. The point is this, don’t waste time doing nothing, but find the time to do something constructive that you know you will be proud of doing, just like myself, I enjoy sharing my faith and the Word of God even though sometimes I feel like I am wasting my time. Ministry is hard. You have to share even when things get tough, when things are turning up side down, when we lose those, we love, and when hades’ is breaking lose. Nothing is easy. It does not matter how many years come and go, it is never easy, but we have to keep on doing what we were called to do whether people listen or not. We that there is someone who will hear the message of the gospel and grab hold to it and do what it says. All we can do is pray for a better tomorrow even though things are the way they are right this very minute.

How do you manage your time? What do you do to make sure you are using your time wisely? I have started using reminders to help me remember to do the things I need to do, and I make myself little notes on my calendars that I use on a daily basis. I have come to an understanding that I am not always going to remember everything just right off of the top of my head, but believe me when I tell you, I try my hardest to remember everything I need to do. There is nothing wrong with making yourself reminders to do things.

The most important thing we should always remember to do is put God first in all things. He is the first person we are to speak to before we do anything to start our day off right. When we do that, our day will go just fine. We will be able to face anything, because we know He is right there with us every step of the way. Well, as always, I have so enjoyed sharing my thoughts with you all. Feel free to comment, like and share, because no one knows who they may encounter who will need to be lifted up. Thank you all for joining me on my journey with Food for the Soul.
