Last week Paul challenged us in this season of Advent to commit to what will last. We want to be prepared for eternity, Jesus is going to come back and we want to encourage others to be prepared to meet with Him too.

Jesus said “…Heaven and earth will pass away, but my words will never pass away.” (Mark 13:31). Advent is more than just the lead up to Christmas. It is an opportuniy to reflect on our lives from the perspetive of eternity.

How does God guide us? If we truly love God and are serious about being disciples of Christ, then we should always want toact and make decisions in line with what God wants.

As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. (1 Peter 1:14)

We recognise that work should not be allowed to dominate our lives, yet increasingly we live in a society where many people are being pushed into working longer hours than ever.
