What on Earth am I Here For?
Life Beyond the Trees

(Day 4 of "The Purpose Driven Life")




  1. Life between the trees is just a day in the tent.
    2 Corinthians 5:1 (NIV)
    Now we know that if the earthly tent we live in is destroyed, we have a building from God, an eternal house in heaven, not built by human hands.



  2. Soon, you will be outside of the trees and your heart will stop beating.
    Hebrews 9:27-28 (NIV)
    Just as man is destined to die once, and after that to face judgment, so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many people; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.



  3. Smart people start living now in light of the trees.
    2 Corinthians 4:18 (NIV)
    So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.



  4. The wonder and greatness beyond the trees is way beyond imagination.
    1 Corinthians 2:9 (NIV)
    "No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him."
