What Will Matter The Most

I used a sermon illustration that really puts things into perspective concerning our salvation.

Joe Stowell writes: "Several years ago a friend of mine visited an exhibit of relics from the infamous Titanic voyage. Exhibit visitors were given a replica ticket with the name of an actual passenger or crew member who, decades earlier, had embarked on the trip of a lifetime. After the tour group walked through the exhibit viewing pieces of silver dinnerware and other artifacts, the tour ended with an unforgettable twist. A large board listed the names of all the passengers, including their status—first class, second class, crew. As my friend looked for the name of the person whose ticket he was holding, he noticed a line across the board dividing the names. Above the line were the names of those who were “saved” and below the line all those who were “lost.” (Our Daily Bread 2/24/2011) 

In the end, it will not matter what our status is. But what will matter is if we will be "lost", or "found." I pray that we will have established, a saving relationship with Jesus Christ, and be on the "found" list, safely home with Him forever. GP
