The Most Important Improvement – Sunday Thought For The Day
The following is an excerpt from my devotional book: “Alone With Jesus: How I Start Each Day.”
There is a false narrative that goes: “Try to improve by 1 percent every
day. Within a year you will have improved by 365 percent.”
It is a false narrative because it supposes the secular narrative that our life on earth is all that matters.
The most important “improvement” so to speak, a person can make is to know without question whether they will spend eternity in heaven with God or eternity in hell. Any so-called “improvement” apart from that, lasts only as long as you are alive, if that.
Think about this, my friends; if you were to die this exact minute, can you say with certainty whether you will spend eternity in heaven or hell? Life isn’t guaranteed. You could die in an instant. I’m asking you this question as your friend.
There is one way to heaven. Despite what you may have heard and despite if you choose to believe too the contrary; Jesus Christ is the only way to eternal life in heaven. Apart from Him, one will have eternal life in hell.

Ephesians 2:8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
