On the last day, Jesus will look us over...
not for medals, diplomas or honours
but for scars.
not for medals, diplomas or honours
but for scars.
How true...the battles we fight and press on into, the things REALLY worth fighting for, probably can't ever be quantified, not in a certificate, not in money, possessions, or acclaim.
Yet, every scar that we earn by learning more and more to be like Christ, those are the things that we should carry with humility, the scars of a battle well-fought, and a lesson well-learnt.
It would be a sad day to find out that we had been studying hard, striving hard, achieving many things, yet taking the wrong exam all the time.
Our test is faithfulness to the Word of God, to our Lord Jesus Christ, to know and to worship God in all we do. Failing this test is the biggest failure of all.
Are you studying the right things?
