Death & beyond...

I know this is a gloomy and scary topic to blog about. But my homegroup watched a documentary on near death experiences yesterday night, out-of-body experiences and both heavenly and hellish experiences. I thought it was a very interesting video. It really makes you think, about your life, about your salvation and definitely about God. Those who had hellish experiences completely transformed their lives and lived lives that glorified God after that.

Is my life God glorifying? I do love Him and try my best to do things that would make Him happy. But I still have many humanly flaws and still do things that I know would make Him unhappy; some of the ways of this world that I have yet manage to leave behind even after accepting Christ. I love my family and my bf too, but I too do/say things that hurt them sometimes. After which I’d apologize and things would be ok again. Just as I ask God for forgiveness after every wrong I do. But how many times can I do that? Am I testing His patience? Testing His love? Or maybe I just cannot understand how unconditional and perfect His love is?

Guess all I can do now is keep on trying to resist the temptations to give in to the ways of this world before it’s too late. What awaits me after death? Only God knows...
