Two evangelists started out on a trip, stopping their car now and then to give out tracts in small villages.
One young boy, about ten years old, was handed a gospel tract. One of the men asked him, “Where are you going?”
The boy answered politely, “Oh, I’m just going across the street to the little store over there.”
“That isn’t what I meant,” explained the man. “Where are you going when you leave this world?”
The question took the young boy by surprise. He had never been asked this before. He did not know what to answer.
What would you answer if you were asked this question? Would you hang your head and not answer or wish that you were somewhere else right then?
God has His eye on each one of you boys and girls. You need to prepare to meet Him; He is your Creator. The Bible says, “Prepare to meet thy God” (Amos 4:1212Therefore thus will I do unto thee, O Israel: and because I will do this unto thee, prepare to meet thy God, O Israel. (Amos 4:12)). Do you believe God’s Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, loves you so much that He died on the cross for your sins? Have you accepted Him as your very own Saviour?
Everyone will face God their Creator someday. This is the most important matter in life to prepare for. Don’t put it off!
