Testimony Time:-The year and the day may be new and the night may have temporarily been overpowered by the administration of the day. This is a revolving cycle which offers a fresh start to everyone. Besides, it gives new hope and the chance to see God in the newness of His power. Quite frankly too, nothing is changed with the exception that we systematically grow old with the intermittent change of time, day, night and year. More often than not; when things are going well for us; we find it so hard to put ourselves in the situation that thinks more of our last day in the world. Otherwise, why is it that everyone wants to end up in heaven but no one wants to die? This concept again overrides the most popular belief which suggests our tenure in heaven is eternal when compared to the very short passage of time we call life on earth. This means no one is guaranteed to live for ever on earth and consequently too, no one can add an ounce to his/her duration of time in this world because "our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself." (Philippians 3:20-21) If that should be the case, why would men fail to prepare their hearts daily to meet with their God as if each day is their last? It does not matter how long we live in this world, let me assure you that heaven is certain and it's reality can come at any time. Don't let us be carried away with the rise and fall of the sun, the day, the night and the year as we gleefully celebrate the presence of another year. Unless we begin to add value to our lives by obeying the Word of God, we will be leading a life which has no bearing to the Christendom. And that attributes alone can spell doom in a manner that transcends the earth and even right through to heaven. Their is a saying that goes; "when it is time it is time. Period! It has no guarantee but we can plan towards it if we are prepared to spend each day rightly and fully in the presence of the Lord. It is not untrue that we may not be able to claim absolute righteousness in the Kingdom race, however; our desires can be to sin less in the face of overwhelming temptations. It is another year Father where you have made everything new again, create in us a clean heart so that we can be reformed to live a Christlike life in Jesus name.
