Reality
Departing this life is a certainty, it stares you in the face. You don’t know when you’ll say farewell, so stay within God’s grace.
It’s appointed unto man once to die. So this is not our home to stay. When your allotted time is up, you will go with Him who is the way. (Hebrews 9:27)
It’s not in dying that you should fear, for the moment you cross over there you will see our Lord and Savior, who will wipe away all tears.
Paul said, to die is to gain, I believe just what he said, and I will go into God’s presence, before you know I’m dead. There is no in between, I know this very well. Heaven is prepared for the righteous saints and hell is prepared for the wicked sinners.
If you don’t know the Lord and you’ve never made it right; bow down your head and humble your heart, and come into the light.
No matter when you call, He’s ready to come in. He’ll save your lost soul, and wash away your sins. Invite him in your heart today, don’t wait or procrastinate. He’ll come in and sup with you before it is to late.
So whether you are dead or alive, when Jesus comes again, you will be called up to meet Him, in the air, you will ascend.

Just as the potter molded and remade his vessel, I am shaping and remolding you. For I must reconstruct your foundation, that your heart may be found pure and true.
He picked up this broken vessel and began to do a work. He peeled and scraped and polished. Oh, I felt so hurt! Just when I thought he had finished, He picked up this vessel again. He said, “No, there is still something lacking, I need to go back again.”
Although I grew faint and weary, sometimes almost gave up, I knew it was for my making. I had to drink the bitter cup. Oh, how I struggled and trembled, just the thought of the pain. Just when I thought I had made it, I had to go back again.
This time He was turning this vessel, as a master with his violin. He began to smooth out rough edges. I began to really know Him. After many days He said, “Come, drink of the new water. Come drink of the new wine at the well. Come, drink in the Holy Spirit, now that you have drunk, be fed”.
He held up this vessel that was broken, this piece of clay He made whole. He said, “Child, you are precious, precious as sparkling gold.
