Chain Reaction

Hebrews 11:39-40


And all these, having gained approval through their faith, did not receive what was promised,
because God had provided something better for us, so that apart from us they would not be made perfect.

Our ancestors allowed us to be where we are in our Spiritual journey -- people
like Moses, Paul, Peter, Henry Blackaby, etc. However, their works and
commitments alone are insufficient for our "perfect" prize. Our own
commitments and good works are required to bring completion. So what I
do here now really matters in eternity. Further, our own commitments alone
are not sufficient because we will need our children to complete what we have
started. This is all a big chain reaction.

In God's eternal perspective, all human race are knit together to complete the
overall perfect plan of God. Not done by just one or a few super heroes but done
by just mere children of God whose hearts are conformed to God's image and
plan -- every single one of them together. So, what I do now really matters.
