Day 6 PDL notes-

This life is only a preparation for the next. We were designed for eternity.

Ecclesiastes 3:11  He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.

We know that when this body is no longer we have an eternal body waiting us.

2 Corinthians 5:1  For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

We need to live in light of that eternity and not just for the here and now. When we understand eternity then the petty things of here and now seem trivial.

Paul saw the pettiness of the here and now and recorded it in the following Scripture.

Philippians 3:7  But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for Christ.
8  Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord: for whom I have suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win Christ,

Death is not the end of you.

We can not even imagine the majesty that awaits us in heaven.

1 Corinthians 2:9  But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.

God has given us glimpses through His Word and we know that right now He is preparing an eternal home for us.

Just as the nine months you spent in your mother's womb preparing for your time on earth, so is the stay on the earth.

Hebrews 13:14  For here have we no continuing city, but we seek one to come.

It is wise to live each day as if it were your last.

This life is not all there is.
