Making Faith MagneticPrøve

IS THERE A WAY BEYOND? What comes after this life? Is there something beyond death? Death is the end for 100% of us, yet we’re surprised by it, and we live in fear of it. And so, we look for a way beyond. For followers of Christ, that way is obvious. The entire narrative of Scripture points beyond this life to a future hope and eternity in the presence of God. But if the people in your life have rejected Christianity, what are they finding when they look for a way beyond? It may seem like modern society is disenchanted with the supernatural, but just a glance through the most-watched movies and tv shows might point to something different. Cosmic drama is a booming industry. Minimalism as a spiritual alternative is very cool. Ask any athlete what their lucky charm is that they would never take to the field or court without. We want to believe that the universe is bigger than just what we can see and touch. But we’re utterly in the dark without some sort of light. Ask Yourself: -How well do I live each day knowing that my true home is beyond this world? -How are people in my life looking for a way beyond in both healthy and unhealthy ways? Pause to Pray: Jesus, You are the way beyond this broken world. Forgive me when I live as if this life is all there is! Help me to learn how to live fully in each day with my eyes lifted toward You. Amen. Take a Next Step: -Continue your 3-3-3 prayers! (see Day 2) -Read or listen to Revelation 21 a couple of times over the next day or two and praise God for eternal life with Him!
