You may not have invented a vaccine or revolutionary device that changes the way a majority of people live, but at the same time, those inventors didn’t create the single most important thing for your life. When you’re out of balance, those around you suffer. When your “A” game is in the rearview, your loved ones don’t get the best of you. When you’re depressed or sad, everyone has to change to get your attention. So you are the center of the universe.
The truth is, Einstein or a government cannot and will never be able to create a way for your soul to enter Heaven. Now, that brings your yesterdays and tomorrows into focus. Jesus didn’t just die for your neighbor, but for you as well. He wants a close relationship with you, because of the cost of that sacrifice. Close your ears and eyes to all the noise and distractions around you. Let your family and friends become a blur until all that remains is the oxygen in your lungs and complete silence to hear God’s voice…this is why you are the most important person ever; this is where you secure your soul’s future.
Once security is established, you will learn the a few truths that change everything about life as you know it. “Love the Lord God with all your heart, and love your neighbor as yourself.” When you seek to understand that statement, balance returns to your life, your loved ones benefit, and your eyes are opened for the first time. The world becomes beautiful, and purpose has a new driving force. You become worth something so much greater than every invention ever created. You have a future and a place to call home.
And with new eyes, a refined heart, and clear vision, you will begin to understand that you are NOT the most important person in history, but Jesus is. You can begin to view the world through His eyes. You are already taken care of, but some people you know are not. You can take your eyes off of the mirror and see why you have been placed in this specific time in history. You can soar high, like an eagle, and become a change-maker. You have a talent that brings joy to your life; use it for God’s glory. Imagine every person you know walking into a dark room—you are that dark room—it’s time to flip the switch and turn the lights on. The explosion of light will change their world.
