Where Are You Going?

Listen from:
Two evangelists started out on a hot summer day on a trip, stopping now and then to give out tracts in small villages.
One young boy, about ten years old, was handed a tract. The evangelist asked, “Where are you going?”
The boy answered politely, “Oh, I’m just going across the street to the little store over there.”
“I don’t mean that,” explained the man. “Where are you going when you leave this world?”
This took the young boy by surprise. He had never been asked this question before. He did not know what to answer.
What would you have answered if you had been this boy? Would you hang your head and not answer or wish that you were somewhere else right then?
God has His eye on you, young boy or young girl. You must prepare to meet Him, your Creator. Amos 4:11Hear this word, ye kine of Bashan, that are in the mountain of Samaria, which oppress the poor, which crush the needy, which say to their masters, Bring, and let us drink. (Amos 4:1)2 Says, “Prepare to meet thy God.” Do you believe His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, loves you so much that He died on the cross for your sins? Have you called to Him to save you from your sins? Don’t put off this important step in your life. Everyone will one day face God, their Creator. This is the most important thing in life to prepare for.
