Why Not Die?

If you don’t think you have any reason to live how about a reason not to die. God loves you but He doesn’t need you in heaven right now so don’t be trying to go there early. He could however use you on the earth to continue to help others and spread His love. “Help others!” you may scoff, “I can hardly help myself!” That’s because you weren’t made to be your own self savior. When you’re down it’s hard to try to pick yourself up but God is always there for you and has sent His own Spirit to be your Helper. If you’re being tempted to check out early then you need to see the bait for what it is. It’s a personal attack and an attempt to spread your pain to as many people as possible. Not being willing to torture and torment those you love is a good reason to live. Rebel against hell and its pity propaganda persuading you to be a pawn because you were created to be a king! Stand up and fight for what’s right because that’s honorable but if put yourself down all you will do is become a bridge for the enemy right to roll right into the midst of your family. There will be time to die later but right now love the reason to live. Because you love and are loved and especially by God and your family. Jesus died so that you could live not died so that you could die. So quit considering the cop-out because you weren’t created to quit. I’m convinced that you can do whatever you put your mind to with the help of Him who’s there for you. Refuse the evil and choose the good because what you do now is not only affecting this life but also your eternity. Talk about missing something if you resist God and go you your own way you won’t just miss something you’ll miss everything. Whatever you’ve lost God has something better for you in the future, are you willing to give it up on a whim? But the only way to see it is to go forward and get it! Nobody said it would be easy but God has promised that it’ll be worth it. You can’t be a champion without challenges and when your losses are bitter it just makes your gains much that much sweeter. So you can do it, you’re able to deal with it. Hope is on the horizon, God is your Guide and I’m also here to help you. So let me know if there’s anything I can do and in the meantime beware because I’ll be praying for you.

2 Cor 5:14-15
14 For the love of Christ compels us, because we judge thus: that if One died for all, then all died; 15 and He died for all, that those who live should live no longer for themselves, but for Him who died for them and rose again. NKJV
