       Paul says here that each of us, no matter who we are, will give an account of our lives to God. We have a presentation to do, or a speech, before him, sharing how we have lived our lives before him. Keep that in mind as you live out your life. Know that you will have to tell God about what you are doing. And how are we going to do that if we are not living in light of the truth of the Bible? Yes, it’s important how we live. It determines the quality of our live in Heaven. Our rewards come from God, not from our fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. Understanding that, it is before God that we stand or that we don’t stand. As the famous saying goes, “We have an audience of one.” I think often our focus is on this life. The phrase is so popular, and I definitely hear it relatively frequently, “You only live once.” But you got to remember, the next life is dependent upon this one. It is dependent in the quality of what it will be.
