ADD OR SUBSTRACT
Prov 10:27
27 The fear of the LORD adds length to life,
but the years of the wicked are cut short.
NIV
Is this all about clean living? If I fear the lord then I will refrain from indulging in all the horrible things this world has to offer. Now I do not speak about the wonderful earth which God created for me to live upon, but the darkness of the world which man has created to live in. I know that my days have already been extended and I expect them to extend even further. I feel as though I sense the same treatment from God as King David received. It was not until he accomplished God’s purpose did he sleep. I believe I will remain here in this present life until I fulfill God purpose for my life. Now I do not think I should procrastinate just to I live longer either. I know I need to be about my Fathers business and be diligent about it. Time is a factor and I know that I must be aware of that. It does take some time to get things done, and sometimes I do get a bit distracted but I know I need to stay focused. There is more here as well in the sense as I live my life in fear of God I do live a far better, healthier lifestyle then if I were to be spending my days in the mode of self-pleasure. Still one more thing strikes me here in the sense of eternal life verse non-eternal life. How much length to my life will be added in eternity is simply unlimited. But the wicked will have their days cut short, end, perish in eternity, which is like very limited. I know my life here and now is far better than it would have been had I refused to accept Jesus Christ as my Lord and Savior. I also know that my life is going to be way better in eternity because I did accept Jesus. How long I will be here on earth in this form is completely up to God, although because I fear him and desire to benefit the Kingdom of God, I believe I have some years ahead of me before I sleep. I am satisfied to add instead of substract.
