Life After Death | Heavenbound

We live in the world that God is redeeming…we aren’t going to escape this place one day, but we will return to this place as part of the final resurrection, the final redemptive work of God.

• So let’s not burn this dumpster to the ground, but let’s honor it, care for it, work for it’s good and pray for the redemption of the brokenness all around us.
• That means that we have a responsibility as followers of Jesus to be the answer to Jesus’ prayer…”your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as it is in heaven.”

Our hope for what’s next becomes our hope for now.

And if we are to be people of hope, living with hope not only for our lives but for our world, that should impact how we interact with our co-workers, our neighbors, our friends and even our enemies.

• So here’s my challenge to you:
• Each day this week, I want you to be intentional to do one thing to bring hope into someone’s life.
• It might mean encouraging someone that’s discouraged at work.
• It might be helping someone out that’s struggling at school.
• It might be going and cutting the grass of that older person on your street.
• How can you give someone a physical or practical reminder that in the midst of a low moment or a difficult season, that there is this redeeming hope?
