1 Corinthians 15:50-58
verses 53-54: For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”
I have been thinking so much about Pastor Gil’s message on Sunday. Our time here on earth is temporary- our homes are temporary- our appetites, our physical health, our bodies are all temporary. When we show God’s love to others, we do not do it merely to make them more comfortable here on earth- we do it to show them God-to lead them to Jesus. Just like Jesus healing the ten lepers- he wasn’t rewarding them with a healthy body. He was showing them God’s presence, to bring them to Him. May all of our good works leave behind the fragrance of Christ- to lead others to Him. Father and Giver of all Life, I am truly thankful for all you have done for me. May I be worthy. Lord help me to show your love to others through my actions. Amen
