LET US PONDER
Many of us party hard, study hard, and do
lots of things to build our legacies, histories, memories and what we would
make reference to in future among our children, subordinates, peers and
biographers. But what history are we writing to tell Jesus on our judgment day.
You may tell your son, ‘Do you think you can smoke and I will not know because
you licked candy sweets afterwards? I know all those tricks!’ or would a woman
tell her students, ‘Do you think you can write answers on your thigh, and use
them in the exam hall without my knowing? I know all those tricks!’ What about
when old men gather among themselves for some festivity? Do they brag about
their yester years when they could gulp spirits
and beer in great quantity, or eat as many plates as were offered them,
or how women they took back home after every party? What about when elderly
women converge together? Do they talk about how they kept up with every fashion
trend in their younger days, or the number of men whose money they took in
scam, or how they ‘jokingly’ spread false rumours and gossips about people they
did not like?
What are we going to look back and say,
either now or before your Judge and Saviour, Jesus Christ? What you are doing,
saying or thinking about now may be fun and seemingly harmless, you may think
that it is your time, or it goes with the age and stage, but seriously you can
choose what kind of memories you want to savour and share in your future.
WHAT DO YOU REASON ABOUT THIS?
