LIFE IS BUT A SPECK OF DUST IN THE OVERALL SCHEME OF CREATION. YET MAN THINKS HE IS THE CENTRE OF THE UNIVERSE. HOW BLIND AND DEAF CAN MAN BE THAT HE HAS LOST SIGHT OF THE UNIVERSE THAT SURROUNDS HIM. HE IS DELUDED BY HIS OWN INTELLIGENCE AND FAILS TO SEE THAT HE IS FROM DUST AND TO DUST HE WILL RETURN. ONLY WHEN A PERSON CONFRONTS THE REALITY OF DEATH WILL HE FIND HIMSELF. DEATH IS THE ONLY REALITY THERE IS, FOR LIFE WILL PASS AWAY SOMEDAY. THIS IS A SOBER THOUGHT. WITHOUT DEATH THERE IS NO REALITY. THEREFORE MAN LIVES IN AN ILLUSION OF REALITY. SOME WHEN THEY ARE CONFRONTED WITH THE REALITY OF DEATH GIVE UP AND LIVE AS IF THERE IS NO TOMORROW. OTHERS BEGIN TO REASSESS THEIR PRIORITIES AND BECOME ALTRUISTIC. IN THE SPIRIT THERE IS NO DEATH BECAUSE THE SPIRIT LIVES ON AFTER THE EARTHLY BODY DIES. THIS IS THE REALM OF THE SPIRIT. IN THE SPIRIT YOU TOO CAN LIVE IN A REALITY THAT IS ABOVE THE SENSUAL. IN THIS REALITY YOU COMMUNE WITH GOD AND LIVE LIKE A MAN RAISED FROM THE DEAD. THIS IS THE REALITY JESUS OBTAINED FOR US WHO ACCEPT HIS LIFE. NOW WE CAN LIVE IN THIS REALITY DAILY TILL WE GO HOME TO BE WITH HIM IN HEAVEN. HEAVEN ON EARTH IS THE REALITY THAT CHRIST OBTAINED FOR US. WE LIVE IN THE SPIRIT AND FACE THE CHALLENGES OF LIFE IN THE SPIRIT. WE ARE SPIRIT BEINGS WALKING ON EARTH. THIS IS ABUNDANT LIFE.
