DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOU ARE GOING?

The story is told about Albert Einstein, the brilliant physicist of Princeton University in the early 20th century. Einstein was traveling from Princeton on a train, and when the conductor came down the aisle to punch the passengers’ tickets, Einstein couldn’t find his. He looked in his vest pocket, he looked in his pants pocket, he looked in his briefcase, but there was no ticket. The conductor was gracious; “Not to worry, Dr. Einstein, I know who you are, we all know who you are, and I’m sure you bought a ticket.”

As the conductor moved down the aisle, he looked back and noticed Einstein on his hands and knees, searching under the seat for his ticket. The conductor returned to Einstein; “Dr. Einstein, Dr. Einstein, don’t worry. I know who you are. You don’t need a ticket, I’m sure you bought one.” Einstein arose and said “Young man, I too know who I am; what I don’t know is where I am going.”

Do you know where you are going? Do you know where you will spend eternity? Sadly, many do not give this much thought. The Bible says there is only one of two destinations awaiting mankind: heaven or hell (Jn. 5:28-29). Jesus said, “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father who is in heaven” (Mt. 7:21). If you are faithfully obedient to the will of God – heaven will be your destination. Find the ticket (the word God) and learn how to get to the proper destination. Follow the instructions of God’s word.

Think About It!

Have A Great Day!
