Why does it matter what we do here on earth if we all go to heaven?
Why does it matter what we do here on earth if heaven & hell are predestined?
Why does it matter what we do here on earth if God will give us a final chance to choose heaven?
Why does it matter what we do here on earth if we can earn our way into heaven, but we will all fall short of being able to do that?
If Jesus is the way,
If Jesus is the truth,
If Jesus is the life,
If Jesus is the Word that was and is and is to come
What we do here on earth matters because we are called into the way Jesus taught right here on earth, as it is in heaven.
What we do here on earth matters because we were created to love God and love one another, right here on earth, as it is in heaven.
What we do here on earth matters because we were created.
We were created to live on earth.
We were created to live.
We were created to live and move and have our being within:
The Word that was with God in the beginning
The Word that became flesh and walked among us
The Word that invites us to abide and bear fruit
The Word that washed the feet of his disciples
The Word that was raised up on the cross
The Word that defeated sin and death
The Word that was resurrected
The Word that holds out redemption
The Word that is returning
The Word that was and is and is to come
What does it matter what we do here on earth?
It matters because, in the beginning God created the heavens AND the earth.

Wow! Just wow! Thank you.
Thanks for the reminder -- I've been so depressed lately that I've thought I didn't matter.
I truly believe that we all matter deeply to the creator... and the rest I'm still figuring out.
