“Eternity, Planted In the Human Heart”

 “Eternity, Planted In the Human Heart”

Yet God has made everything beautiful for its own time.  He has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of God’s work from beginning to end.  Ecclesiastes 3:11

The writer of Ecclesiastes tells us that God’s Plans for mankind, is BEAUTIFUL, or APPROPRIATE for its own time.  In other words God in HIS PLANS, and CONTROL has a PROPER time for EVERY ACTIVITY.   And in considering the specific time frames, we can KNOW that  for EVERYTHING there is a season, a time for EVERY ACTIVITY under Heaven. (V 1)  This is because of God’s PROVIDENTIAL PLANS for ALL of mankind.

The ALMIGHTY GOD has PLANTED ETERNITY in the HUMAN HEART.  And people are naturally curious about what their SIGNIFICANCE is in all of their ACTIVITIES and PLANS.  Just where do they fit into the SCOPE of things?  But even though God has PLANTED ETERNITY in the HUMAN HEART, mankind still cannot comprehend the WHOLE SCOPE of GOD’S Work from the BEGINNING to the END.  They WORK HARD and LONG for things that are TEMPORAL, yet they do NOT consider the ETERNAL THINGS of God.  If mankind would spend as much time in PREPARING for ETERNITY, as they do for EARTHLY,TEMPORAL things, they could face ETERNITY with ASSURANCE and PEACE in their HEARTS, and be UNASHAMED of their service for God.

In order to be PREPARED for ETERNITY, and to have that ASSURANCE and PEACE in your HEART, there are some VERY IMPORTANT things you MUST DO.  First, you MUST ADMIT that you are a SINNER in NEED of the SAVIOR, the LORD JESUS CHRIST, God’s ONLY SON, who GAVE His Life, to SAVE your life from an ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its, HORRORS, and NO WAY to ESCAPE, once you are there.  Then you MUST BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART, that JESUS died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God.  And you MUST CONFESS your sins to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS. You MUST be WILLING to TURN AWAY FROM your SINFUL life-style and TURN TO GOD with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  You MUST ACCEPT God’s Gift of SALVATION, and begin to PREPARE for YOUR ETERNITY, through SEEKING OUT God’s PLAN for YOU.  Do this NOW, while you STILL can.  He’s WAITING and COMING SOON.  DON’T BE LEFT BEHIND!!!
