1 John 5:4 (NIV)
4 for everyone born of God overcomes the
world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.
This is the companion passage to 1 John 2:17 —
"The world and its desires are passing away, but the one who does the will
of God lives forever." Our destiny and future are not limited to the
boundaries of existence tied to our little blue planet. Our future and our hope
burst the boundaries of mortality and are tied to our faith in a resurrected
and victorious Savior who is coming back to bring us to his eternal home. This
faith is displayed by doing God's will even when most people in our
contemporary culture choose to chase what is fleeting and transient.
Thought for today:
Are my actions of today based on my eternal life?
