It's How You Finish the Race and Where It's Taken You

The righteous walk in His ways and will be rewarded. The rebellious stumble and fall and will ultimately lose the race. It's all about how you finish and where the race has taken you.

June's Message, Day 14:

Who is wise? Let them realize these things. Who is discerning? Let them understand. The ways of the Lord are right; the righteous walk in them, but the rebellious stumble in them. Hosea 14:9 NIV

Living each day, walking in His ways, the way of truth, will ultimately bring honor and success to you. Though the journey may be long and tough, victory will come. We have seen over and over again, that our God loves His children to walk in the light of His Word, His ways, and His will. Just as we as parents, revel and delight in our children being obedient, well-behaved, and showing godly character. Righteous character is rewarded and prized, but rebellious character will always bring conflict, lost opportunities, instability, and ultimately dishonor. The rebellious may appear to be outwardly and temporarily successful and possessing it all, but what truly matters is how the race is finished and where the race has taken you. Remember, it is better to lose it all here and gain eternity, than to have it all here and lose a heavenly eternity.
