THE REWARD OF THE FAITHFUL

2 Corinthians 5:9-10
Holy Bible. New Living Translation copyright © 1996, 2004 by Tyndale Charitable Trust.

New Bodies

9 So whether we are here in this body or away from this body, our goal is to please him. 10 For we must all stand before Christ to be judged. We will each receive whatever we deserve for the good or evil we have done in this earthly body.


C. S. Lewis wrote, “We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea.”

God will reward the faithful who respond to opportunities. How will you respond to His call? He has a holiday waiting for you.
