Will you go to heaven when you die? And if you think so, why?

Will you go to heaven when you die?  And why do you think so?

Many people say yes - here are some of the reasons I have gotten ...

1) I'm an angel, and I do lots of good deeds.
2) I have taken care of my sick father for years.
3) I have Jesus in my heart.
4) I just know.

How can one have assurance that he or she is going to heaven?  There is only one way, and that is to repent (turn from your sin and selfishness to God) and trust in Jesus ALONE for the forgiveness of your sins.  He said "I am the way, the truth and the life.  No one comes to the Father except through me" - John 14:6.

I tell people I know I'm going to heaven because it no longer has anything to do with me!  I am safe and secure in the love of my Savior!

What 5 Minutes at a Gas Station Can Do!!!

The other day I had to get some gas for my car.  Sometimes I'm just not disposed to witness.  Silly me.  But this day, I had a strong sense of the Lord saying to me "Don't be afraid".  Three separate blessings resulted for me, in 5 minutes.

I gave a million to a young man sitting in the passenger seat of a car re-fueling.  He immediately turned it around and began reading - "Everybody does that, everybody does that ...", to which I replied "Yes, we all need a Savior", then "You're dead a lot longer than you're alive - that could be the most important paper you've ever held in your life" - and he said "Yes".

I gave another to a lady pumping her fuel.  I told her what it was and she said "My daughter will like this".  And I wondered how many people pass on the bills to others.  Who knows how God will use them!

I had given another one to another lady, and afterwards she came up to me and said "Would you pray for my son, he's on drugs".  I asked his name & prayed with her right there.  When I was done she said "Thank you" and went back to her car with tears in her eyes.

Isn't it AMAZING what the Lord can do with 5 minutes at a gas station???

He is to be PRAISED and THANKED.  All glory to HIM.
