There was once a pentecostal evangelist and after his conversion he went around writing the word ‘eternity’ everywhere to get people to think of….well of eternity!
Eternity is a long time!
As a former actuary my studies were in the area of life assurance and pensions!
What is a pension? Well in summary it is a savings fund for when you are old and will not be able to work!
I was horrified when I started work that I already had to put money aside for my pension. I wasn’t even 25 and was thinking ahead to 65.
When I lived in Australia I used to visit old people in the nursing home. I was surprised to see many times on the television advertisements for insurance for a coffin!
It went something like this
“You don’t want your loved ones upset when you die, so buy insurance and have a 5 star coffin with an en suite and flowers for $1000000000”
Anyway the point is the same, planning ahead for the inevitable….. death!
But even at a very young age I couldn’t help think of my second retirement, yes, life after death!
And why worry so much for life between 60 and 90 and forget about life after death!
The easy way out is to say there is no such thing but deep down the question will still haunt you, what if there is?!
Personally I didn’t see it as a responsible thing to ignore this question and live my life as if there were no consequences!
I begged God to reveal himself to me as every psychologist and mental health professional seemed to have avoided the book on God and eternity in their studies and seemed to be no wiser than a street cat!
Why Jesus let me go to the end of myself I’ll never know, why He let me touch death on earth?
Perhaps it is to tell you about it?
So here is some of what over 10 years of prayer and revelations have shown me!
Eternity is real, we live on!
Our retirement fund for eternity is what we save up in this life through prayer!
God is extremely merciful and saves many souls who never said a prayer because they were blinded while on earth!
Nonetheless these souls now need our prayers to be purified and get to heaven.
Although they get to heaven they will never enjoy the same degree of glory that they would had they lived prayerful lives on earth!
And so today is Friday!
Do you want your loved ones after your death praying and suffering for your soul to get to heaven?
Do you want your kids and grand kids suffering spirtually for your mistakes?
Of course you don’t!
So why not take out some insurance! Pick up your rosary and ask your mother to reveal the realities of eternity to you and start saving for eternity!
Tomorrow I will be going to Medjugorje again. Shoot me a message if you would like me to pray for you and once again prayer and any material or financial support welcome, needed and appreciated!
Bless you
Mike
