Hats off to you mother of five! Children are truly a blessing and you are to be commended for your job. I am a mother of three and as mothers we wear many hats.
I firmly believe that how we live on this earth will determine where we go when we die. The Bible says that it is appointed once on this earth for man to die...and that we will return ...ashes to ashes and dust to dust. So this is inevitable. Also, everyone will live eternally--meaning forever. However, where we spend the rest of eternity depends on the choices we make in life. The number one choice that determines whether you will spend eternity in heaven is the choice to make Jesus Christ your Lord and Savior. He said, I am the way, the truth, and the life. No man comes to the father, but through me. Any man that comes any other way is a liar and a thief. This tells me that Jesus is the only way to God and to heaven. I know that God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believeth on and in Him will have everlasting life. There is a place prepared for believers of Jesus Christ in heaven and your name is written down in the Lamb's Book of Life.
However, if you choose to reject Jesus, then your name is written down in a book--but this book just catalogs your life--and hell is your home. There is no nice way to put this. It is simply what it is. Scripture tells us that hell was created for the devil and his angels. God desires that we do not go to this place, but if we reject the gift He has given us to avoid this place--then to hell one will go. Yes, God is a God of love but He is also a just God. Out of love, He provided a way for us to be with Him for eternity. If we choose not to accept this gift--hell will be your home.
I am more than aware that some do not believe in the Bible or Jesus. To those I say--can you afford to be wrong. What if there is a chance that you are incorrect in the way that you are living? Wouldn't you want to know? Simply opening your mouth and asking God to reveal Himself to you is so simple and could save you a life in hell.
If you want to accept the free gift of Jesus Christ...it is as simple as a poem
Jesus, You died upon a cross
And rose again to save the lost
Forgive me now of all my sins
Coem be my Saviour, Lord, and Friend
Change my life and make it new
And help me Lord, to live for you.
