What Comes Next?

There are many who believe that this life is all we have. But that is not what the Designer/Creator says in His book. He says there is a life after this one. He also tells me there are two places you can spend that "life". One is wonderful. The other is awful. One is beyond anything we can comprehend in beauty and love. The other is beyond anything we can comprehend in pain and ugliness.

I heard the other day of people who have died and they did NOT witness the "light" experience that so many have seen. They experienced something totally different. Check out this interview. At the six minute mark, this guy talks about the people he has met who have had death experiences that were not good.

I hope you listened with your heart open to the truth. As long as you still have breath...you still have a chance to hear, to learn, to make a choice.
Our Designer/Creator does NOT want anyone to make the choice to go to the awful place. He wants us to be with Him in His love and beauty forever. It is all there in His book...the Bible. Check that out, too!

From our little RV on the hillside to you...PLEASE consider eternity! Please consider where you will spend it. There is nothing in this life as important as that. This will all pass away. It will be gone...replaced with something even better. But not everyone will experience that something better.

Thoughts on Life!

I have been thinking of a few things lately. The world we live in is so incredible...so precise! There are so many things in this world that have such complexity that if you remove even one part of them they would cease to work...cease to function!

When the cell was first discovered it was thought to be very simple...extremely simple. Now we know that it is extremely complex. We are always discovering new things about how the not so "simple" cell really works. It is like a mini-factory with all of its exacting processes.

Think of it. We look at a building and know that someone had to design it. Buildings don't just suddenly, or even slowly, appear. They have to be designed and built by someone.

This universe, this planet, even a microscopic cell is so much more complex than a building could ever be. So, it begs the question...who designed this universe? Someone had to clearly design it. Who?

My bible tells me who designed it and who created it. But even more than that, it also tells me why it is in the condition that it is in. It tells me why there is evil marring this beautiful world...why there is ugliness in the midst of the beauty. I really encourage everyone out there to read it for yourself.

The best part about it is that it also tells me what this Designer/Creator is doing to fix the problem of the evil that is in the midst of His beautiful creation. There is an answer for it. He is doing it now and He will one day bring it to completion. There will come a time when evil will be no more.

From our little RV on the hillside to you, wherever you are...I hope that you are all seriously looking at where you will be after you face death. No one escapes death. It will come...to us all.
