Life Is Only Temporary

Summary: A. Our identity is in eternity and our homeland is in heaven B. We are ambassadors of the Lord.
LIFE IS A TEMPORARY ASSIGNMENT
Psalm 39:4 / Psalm 119:19
Two things we must never forget to make the most out of life.
1. Life is extremely brief compared to eternity.
2. Earth is only a temporary residence.
The bible uses terms like alien, pilgrim, foreigner, stranger, visitor, and traveler to described our brief stay here on earth.
This truth tells us that:
A. Our identity is in eternity and our homeland is in heaven
B. We are ambassadors of the Lord.
I personally believe that time on earth is not the complete story of your life. We must wait until heaven for the rest of the chapters, but it takes faith dreams and aspirations to live on earth as a foreigner.
Ipinapakita din sa atin ang katotohanan na habang naririto tayo sa mundo ay mayroon tayong mga responsibilidad na dapat gawin at di dapat ipagwalang bahala.
Hinahamon tayo na:
mangarap. (To Dream) Why?
1. A dream gives direction
2. A dream increases our potential
3. A dream helps us prioritize
4. A dream adds value to your work
5. A dream predicts our future here on earth.
HOW TO DEVELOP A DREAM?
1. THOUGHT IT
A. Believe in your ability to succeed
B. Get rid of your pride
C. Cultivate constructive discontent
D. Escape from habit
2. CAUGHT IT
3. SOUGHT IT
4. GOT IT
5. FOUGHT IT
6. TAUGHT IT
Maiksi lang ang buhay dito sa mundo,totoo na pansamantala lang ang lahat. Ano man ang ating gawin dito tiyak na malilimutan at mawawalan ng kabuluhan, subalit di ito dahilan upang magwalang bahala at maghintay na lamang ng kamatayan. Ang Dios na nagbigay ng buhay ay nagbigay din ng mga pangarap na habang nandito sa lupa ay marapat na asamin at nasaing magkaroon ng katuparan di lamang sa iyo, di lamang sa ibang tao, kundi sa Dios na naglagay sa iyo dito na ang layunin ay pamahalaan mo ang mundo sa kabuuan ng iyong kakayahan.
