Thoughts to think about #12

What is your primary goal you want to accomplish in life? That is a pivotal question in all America, and all the world. In Ecclesiastes it says, "Naked a man comes from his mother's womb, and as he comes, so he departs." what will you pursue as your target throughout your life? To be a famous musician? Writer? Be wealthy? All these ideals and many more are vain and worthless. Think about it. Man can take nothing with him through death, so what is the use of even accomplishing anything in this life? There is one thing though that is important and everlasting, Salvation through Jesus Christ. With him our life goals can be effective and important. To bring glory to God is more important than to show others how 'good' you are. Christ is life, Christ is light and He is the only one that will stick with us even through death. So why pursue something that is mortal and dies in the most important place and time?
~For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. -Matthew 6:21

Yup, Yup Yup, I agree, 1. do these things even matter? 2. Will they help me to be a witness for the LORD *ouch*. 3. Do I actually even need this?
