“For assuredly, I say
to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means
pass from the law till all is fulfilled.”
These
words that speak of the end give me a shocking sense of finality. I have days
sometimes where I look around and I get a momentary shock of reality, but not
this reality. I suddenly remember more than usual that one day I will no longer
be here. I will no longer be on this earth. I will close my eyes on this world
and open them in the heavenlies. I won’t go to Starbucks, or do school, or talk
to friends, or grow anymore, I won’t cry, I won’t be in this body… I won’t be
here anymore. I’ll open my eyes to something completely beautiful, and full of
joy.
But
until then…
Not one
jot or tittle will pass from the law, until all is fulfilled. All of the Bible,
all that was said… not until the very last “Amen.” We should live accordingly.
I keep
hearing something I learned the other day. “This is your one chance in all
eternity to make a difference for Jesus. Use it well.”
Today,
I will pray for ten minutes after each meal today for God to open my eyes and
to prepare me for the field.
