Where to Go in Life Wang Zhaixian Looking around the world, there are towering mountains and ridges. During this period, animals and insects of all sizes lived; there were winding rivers flowing through the valleys, nourishing the earth. There are vast seas and lakes, in which there are aquatic animals of all sizes, and there are grassy plains where all kinds of plants grow endlessly and cover the earth; there are endless deserts where flying sand and yellow dust blow in the wind, becoming a barren land; there are also blue skies where all kinds of birds are soaring; the warm sun gives light and heat to the world on time; the moon and stars share the responsibility of lighting up the dark night. There is air gently blowing on the treetops, making a slight sound of wind, and the rain moistens the ground, giving birth to all kinds of grains, fruits, vegetables, and grasses. Human beings, the "spirits of all things", are scattered among them, living in various houses built by them. They ride on the boats, cars, ships, and airplanes they invented and manufactured, shuttled back and forth on the ground, at sea, and in the air, painting a beautiful picture, all showing beautiful scenes. Because when God created the heavens and the earth, he said this: "God saw everything he had made, and it was good." (Genesis 1:31) David was inspired by the Holy Spirit to write a poem: Looking at the heavens which your fingers had made, and the moon and the stars where you had set them, he said, "Who is man, that you care about him?" Who is this worldly man that you care for him? You made him a little lower than the angels and crowned him with glory and honor. You have given him dominion over the works of your hands, to put everything under his feet: all cattle and sheep, and all the beasts of the field, and the birds of the air, and the fish of the sea, and everything that passes by the way of the sea. (Psalm 8) Human beings are undoubtedly born from their parents and nourished by heaven and earth. They have the breath of life inside them, which prompts their bodies and wisdom to grow day by day. Without the breath of life, there is no life and no growth. But human life is just like what the Bible says: "The days are short and full of tribulations. They come out like flowers, beautiful and bright, then they are cut off and wither, they fly away like shadows, and like snow and fog, they appear for a short time and then disappear." (Job 14:1) No matter how we run back and forth in the world, pass through countless crossroads, and seem to have a far-off future, sooner or later we must enter each person's graveyard and end a life full of toil and sorrow. In this limited life, God’s servant Paul teaches us that we should use this short-lived suffering, accomplishment, and incomparable eternal glory. It turns out that we do not care about what is seen, but about what is unseen, because what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal. (2 Corinthians 4:17-18) What is temporary? Suffering is temporary, a test from God to man, and it may also be a discipline. The other is that the material world we see is temporary and will be destroyed in the days to come. The Bible says: "On that day the heavens will pass away with a loud noise, and all things corporeal will be consumed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be burned up." (2 Peter 3:16) Therefore, the material world is not worth coveting. So what is forever? "The reward in heaven is everlasting glory; there is a crown of incorruption, which is infinitely better." (1 Corinthians 9:5) The invisible kingdom of heaven is incorruptible, undefiled, and unfading. It is an inheritance reserved for us in heaven, where there is no more death, and everything is made new. (1 Peter 1:4) We should make good use of the conscience given to us by God, search the Bible, and think about the words recorded by God in it, which indicate "the way of life, the way of eternal life. While there is still today, turn around and enter this doorway that leads to eternal life." (Matthew 7:13) In order not to blindly follow the worldly luxury and enjoyment, be mediocre, aimless, and waste this short golden age that only happens once. Therefore, during this period, you should remember your God, who is the creator of heaven and earth and all things, as well as the creator of your parents and your life, so that all your plans and efforts in the subsequent stages of youth, middle age, and old age will not go astray and lose the correct direction of life. "O man! The Lord of life has shown you what is good, and what does He require of you? To do justly, to love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God." (Micah 6:8) This is the right track of life. If you travel on it and do not turn to the right or left, this track will lead you to enter the kingdom of God and enjoy "eternal life" that cannot be enjoyed in the world. The Lord of mankind has come to the world and paid a ransom for everyone in the world. He is Jesus Christ who came into the world as a man. He is different from the world and must be trapped by death. He has been resurrected from the death of the grave and was taken up to heaven by the Father, proving that there is an "eternal God" besides the short-lived human beings. He promised eternal life to all who believed in His teachings. The judgment that God will carry out at the end of the world is to stand before the end of life, with thousands of angels standing on his left and right. Some people will go to eternal punishment, and those who are righteous will go to eternal life. (Matthew 25:46). Dear friend, which road are you taking now? One step at a time cannot be ignored, because there are many people who will hate you for eternity if you make one mistake. Please turn around and walk into the road opened by the Lord Jesus for you to have eternal life and enjoy eternal blessings! Those who have entered, please stand firm.
