One day your life’s journey will be over, and you will enter eternity. But what kind of journey will it have been? At the end of your life, will you look back with sorrow and regret, realising too late that you have travelled the wrong road? Or perhaps that the road you travelled was the right one- but you had allowed the troubles and temptations of this world to hold you back and keep you from reaching your full potential?
Instead, my prayer is that you would have been on the right road in life- and not only that, but that you would have reached the end of your journey with joy. My prayer is that you would have known God’s presence the whole way, and that even in the midst of life’s deepest trials you would have found your strength in Him.
…Some day this life will be over. I look forward to that day, because I know that beyond it is heaven. I pray you do too.
Billy Graham, ‘The Journey’
