I know that may sound like a sappy line from a romance novel, but it's not.
It's true.
Everyday I live, I die a little more. Because of sin's curse on this world, I am dying a little bit everyday. I am closer to dying everyday.
But then, everyday I live brings me closer to living eternally.
Romans 8:2: "For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death."
Because I have trusted in Jesus as my Lord and Savior, I will live eternally with Him.
Jesus said in John 5:24, "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life."
No guilt in life, no fear in death, this is the power of Christ in me.
From life's first cry, to final breath, Jesus commands my destiny.
So though I grow old, though I die a little everyday, I am a day closer to living eternally with Jesus Christ.
