“Whatsoever thy hand findeth to do, do it with thy might; for there is no work, nor device, nor knowledge, nor wisdom, in the grave, whither thou goest.”
November is the time to give it all! All day sits and long hours in the stand can bring by a big buck that will go for a ride in the back of the truck. If your an avid hunter you are probably aware that November is the best time to hunt in the Midwest. Are you giving it your all right now? Will you spend enough time in the stand to receive a reward? When we look at this verse of scripture we can quickly see God’s command to every believer for how we should live our lives! James 4:14 “Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.” Life is so short. Its nothing more than a breath when you compare it to eternity. What is the heart and soul of your life? Family? Hunting? Cars? Sports? When your cheering for your team, do you give it all? When your playing the game, do you do your best? Ecclesiastes is showing us here that when we are dead, there will be no more effort or work we can put into this physical life! Family, hunting, sports, etc. is nothing sinful unless you make it to be that way. Jesus Christ died on the cross to pay for the sins of the whole world. The only way lost souls will ever hear the gospel is if born again believers are serving with all of their might! When God becomes first in your life all the other things will work out for the best. You will have a happy home, happy marriage, success in the field, all your needs, etc! If you paralleled your spiritual life to the deer stand what gets the most focus? Are you serving God with all your might, or does your heart belong to the world? Life is short and you only have one shot! Make it count for Jesus!
