While visiting my mother this past Sunday, in a moment of quietness, she began to speak about passing away. She said, "No one will care when I am gone."I immediately said, "No mom, you are wrong, I love you and I will miss you! But you will go to Heaven and there you will be so happy, and I will be okay. I will miss you but I will see you later." She nodded and peacefully smiled.

We are all in the realm of time. From the time we are born until the time we die, we are all moving towards eternity. This is only a time passage unto a "world without end."

This morning I was reading in the book Daniel where he was interpreting Nebuchadnezzar's dream of the great image. That image represented great kingdoms that have passed away into antiquity, and the fourth one of the final end. Which is the one we are seeing appear in our time.

What spoke to me were these semi-final words: "Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces.Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth." Daniel 2:34-35.

All of those kingdoms are gone and this final one will be as they are. GONE. The kingdoms that are here and now will be as chaff that the wind carries away, and will never be again at the time of Jesus' Second Coming. The only remaining Kingdom will be the "Stone Kingdom of Jesus Christ" that will "fill the whole earth."

Be aware of the time that God has given to you and anchor yourself to Christ whom you love, who "Inhabits eternity." You will be there sooner or later.

Be eternity conscious and remember the words of King David, "My times are in thy hand." Psalm 31:15.

“When the time comes to die, make sure that all you have to do is die!”
