More 2 Life


More to life
Do you want more to life?
Is life just what is seems to be?Books, stress, exams, money, carrier, fame?
Are you sick and tired of being sick and tired?


In Matthew 16:26,
“What good will it be for a man if he
gains the whole world,
Yet
forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?”



Most of the things we do today are just temporary.
You think your Anatomy Netter’s Atlas will last forever?
Nope.
Yet we are spending so much time with it.
To pass the exam so to say.
But is life just about passing exams?
Or there is more to that?



Being a rich eventually sounds like a big dream.
Who doesn’t want to be rich and famous?
There are so many Bill-gates wannabes around.



You see,
God made everything.
God made us.
He knows us better than we know ourselves.
He knows that our heart will long for all these things in life.
It’s true.
That’s why in His Word of Life (Bible),
He says what good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world,
But loses his soul eventually.



God wants us to focus not on these earthly things.
He is more concern about your soul.
Two times he mention the word soul in one short verse.
That shows how important your soul is to God.
He wants your soul to be saved.
Not your knowledge, money or carrier.
It’s so clearly stated that it would be such a waste
if a person is so successful in life but in the end leads to nothing.



My friends, there is definitely more to life in this life.
At one point of life,
Everybody will experience a vacuum in life.
Where you find your life empty and wanting to find the purpose in life.
Wanting to know why you exist in this planet earth.
Well this vacuum can only be filled by God and nothing else.



That’s why we chose the title More to Life for our CF.
Because there’s something so much bigger in life.
Something that you can’t afford miss in this lifetime,
Which is,
God’s love and eternal life in heaven.
If you missed this boat, you’ll be left behind,
Forever…



Do you want to gain to world, and lose your soul?



It is big news when someone we know loses a part of his or her body.
We speak in hushed and somber tones when someone loses their mind,
their kidney, part of a lung, one of their limbs,
we even laugh at people who loses their hair and teeth.
How do we feel, however, when we see someone losing their soul?
You tell me…



Once someone told me,
“If I believe in God and life after death and you do not,
And if there is no God, we both lose when we die.
However, if there is a God, you still lose and I gain everything.”

So it’s up to you now…
