How To Live Forever

[S] 1 John 2:17 --
17 The world is passing away, and also its lusts; but the one who does the will of God lives forever.

[O] There are so many products and ways people offer to live longer out there these days, but I have not heard of a single way to live forever.  Well, God provides a way for us to do just that -- do the will of God.  Since we all die physically away from this world, He must refer to another life beyond what we know of here and the way to invest in that path is to do His will while we live here on earth.

[A] In many ways, my mind is locked into finding ways to not die sooner instead of living forever.  It's a passive perspective rather than the proactive view of entering into the eternity with God now here in this world by following God's will for me.  I must think proactively and to move forward into His presence forever.

[P] Dear Father, please continue to guide my life so that I would invest fully into doing Your will to live with You forever beyond my life here in this world.  In Jesus' name.  Amen
