The Battle for Life
Life is a battle, no matter how you choose to live or define it. Happiness and suffering are inescapable, woven into the fabric of our existence. But in the end, will it all be worth the sacrifice? Will the path you walk and the choices you make be worth dying for?
What are you giving your life for, and will it stand, will it prove to be worth it—or will it testify against you? This is the most crucial question you will ever answer. The foundation of your life is a matter of life and death—far too important to leave to chance.
Don't climb the mountain of life only to find despair at the summit. Don't follow a path that leads to a dead end. Don't spend your time here only to realize you got it all wrong. Truth is within reach, but it lies beyond this world—waiting for those who are willing to seek it, no matter the cost.

Word for Thought
The Greatest Story
Every one of us is confronted with the question of how to live a life that truly matters. Before us stand three paths, each calling to us, urging us forward. These paths are unnamed and offer no guarantees, yet each leads to one of three outcomes: success, mediocrity, or failure.
Success
The door to success is shaped by how we define it. For some, it’s love and being loved; for others, it’s knowledge, family, health, wealth, fame, legacy, or material achievements. Whatever the definition, success is the pursuit of its highest fulfillment. Yet for many, it becomes an endless chase—like a man who considers himself rich yet cannot stop chasing more. It’s the relentless climb toward the peak of life’s mountain, always reaching higher, never fully satisfied.
Mediocrity
The door to mediocrity opens to a life of ordinariness, lacking true fulfillment. It’s a life of settling—content with the shallow end, never facing complete failure but never making a lasting impact either. It drifts between fleeting moments of happiness when things are good and sorrow when they are lost. This is the person who climbs halfway up the mountain of life, content with the view but never pushing further.
Failure
The door to failure opens to a life marked by regret. This person feels as if they’ve failed at everything, never truly belonging or finding purpose. Perhaps they’ve fallen into addiction, crime, or despair. Their time on earth is marked by heartache, pain, and suffering. Like a climber who slips before ever reaching a foothold, they remain at the base of the mountain, unable to rise.
I don’t know what stage of life you’re in or how old you are, but one day, you will find yourself on one of these three paths.
Imagine having the power to write your own story, to decide how it ends—no matter where you are in life. Picture yourself 10 to 30 years from now. If you could shape your future in any way, what would it look like? Now, imagine I told you that whatever you wrote down would come true.
What if we could write our story—a dream life, a thousand pages filled with the wonders we envision, a life that seems perfect in our eyes? We’d eagerly set the pen down and begin living each page, thrilled by the possibilities. But then, as we turn the page, we find that our time on earth has come to an end. Just like that, the story is finished. The truth is, no one knows the day or hour when our existence here will come to a close. It could end at any moment, without warning.
The idea of being able to write our own stories sounds enticing, doesn’t it? But here’s the hard truth: even if we could write our stories, we must remember that our time on earth is limited. No matter how grand or tragic the story we create, it will eventually be left behind. It cannot transcend our existence. It will fade, burn away, and become a distant memory—quickly slipping from view. For those we leave behind, our story will remain a fleeting memory, no matter how hard they try to hold on. Eventually, even they will begin to forget.
What if there’s more to life than the fleeting stories we write for ourselves? What if there’s a greater story—one that transcends our brief existence on earth, one that will be celebrated for all eternity? A story that is truly life, a life remembered forever. This is a story we’re invited to be part of, but only if we’re willing to let go of our temporary tales and embrace something far greater.
I don’t know what stage or age you’re at, or how you feel—whether successful, mediocre, or like a failure. Perhaps you’re just beginning your journey. Before you move forward, you must decide: do you want to write your own story, or become part of something greater? If you're just starting out, there’s no better time to invest in the greater story of God’s kingdom. And if you’re nearing the end, it’s the perfect moment to step into God’s eternal story and finish your life’s story the right way.
In the end, you must ask yourself: What path are you on? What story are you writing? How will it end, and what will it have meant? And are you convinced you can write a story greater than the one God has already written?
What story is God inviting us to join?

"His love never wavers—even in my failures, He holds me and never lets me go."
"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth,"
Storing Up Your Treasures
I've tasted the best this world has to offer—flirted with success, stumbled through failure, and lingered in mediocrity. I've known love and felt the ache of losing those I held dear. I've heard every theory, opinion, and philosophy about the meaning of life. And now, as I look back, with time slipping through my fingers and the door to my departure drawing near, I can say with absolute certainty—none of it was the answer.
The moments, the triumphs, the heartbreaks—all of it fades. Like possessions hoarded over a lifetime, they become nothing more than relics of a past that drifts further from sight. No matter how much I try to give them meaning, they are but rusted antiques—fragments of a world that will one day vanish, leaving nothing behind.
I am grateful that God has opened my eyes, shifting my gaze from the emptiness of the past to the true treasure found in Jesus Christ. No longer searching for meaning in what was, I now look ahead with certainty, knowing that my future—and my eternity—rests in Him, the answer.
"Look up to God, for He is your strength."
Dear Heavenly Father,
Oh, that I could be like Your Son—to walk in perfect love, speak life-giving words, and surrender everything in the ultimate act of obedience. That I could know Your love so deeply that living apart from You would be unbearable.
Father, shape me into the image of Your Son. Transform this sinful, broken man into something radiant, something that reflects Your beauty. Let me shine with His light. And if fear, doubt, or a wavering heart holds me back, then, Lord, strengthen my faith—help my unbelief.
Oh, Father, how I long to break free from the grip of this world and the enemy who relentlessly pursues me. To be fully alive in You, to dwell in Your love until it overflows from every part of my being.
Forgive me for my sin—for my unfaithfulness in trading You for the fleeting deceptions of this world. You have given me the power to resist temptation, yet I have failed to walk in the strength You have placed within me. Instead of crucifying my flesh daily, I carry it like a weight I cannot escape, and because of this, I am powerless, my faith too weak to overcome.
Father, forgive me. Give me wisdom today to walk by the Spirit, to put to death the desires of the flesh, and to live in the victory You have already won for me.
