I asked myself this question,what keeps my heart going?.In Acts 17 v 28 we read,'For in Him we live and have our being',in v 25 we read,'He himself gives breath and everyting else'Of course the answer is God,one person comments,'From the beat of our hearts to the breath in our lungs,everything we have is because of God. All we can see,taste,touch and hear,all things about life that we enjoy are made possible, through Him' People who live a long life are often asked,what do you put down for your long life,and I have never heard one person say,the obivious,'God'. It was Job who said,'The Lord gave and the Lord has taken away' Job 1 v 21.Why have I lived so long? God,why did my baby brother die,and yet I lived,why was I saved from drowning as a child?God.The answer is not what keeps my heart going, but rather who keeps my heart going.People take it for granted,they live oblivious of the higher power,while they rely on doctors ,and medicine , and of course they are God's instruments,but ultimately we are in God's hands. One day our hearts will stop beating,what then? the apostle Paul writes the following that'God commands all people everywhere to repent.For He has set a day when He will judge the world with justice by the man ( Jesus)He has appointed Acts 17 v 30-31. C.H.Mason wrote the following words.
'Be in time! ...Be in time!
While the voice of Jesus calls you,
Be in time!
If in sin you longer wait,
You may find no open gate,
And your cry be just to late:
Be in time!
