FEBRUARY 8 – RESPONSIBILITY

2/8 Isaiah 39:3
Then Isaiah the prophet went to King Hezekiah and asked him, “What did those men want? Where were they from?” Hezekiah replied, “They came from the distant land of Babylon.” 4 “What did they see in your palace?” asked Isaiah. “They saw everything,” Hezekiah replied. “I showed them everything I own — all my treasures.” 5 Then Isaiah said to Hezekiah, “Listen to this message from the LORD Almighty: 6 The time is coming when everything you have — all the treasures stored up by your ancestors — will be carried off to Babylon. Nothing will be left, says the LORD. 7 Some of your own descendants will be taken away into exile. They will become eunuchs who will serve in the palace of Babylon’s king.” 8 Then Hezekiah said to Isaiah, “This message you have given me from the LORD is good.” But the king was thinking, “At least there will be peace and security during my lifetime.”
RESPONSIBILITY
We have a responsibility to those with us and those who follow us. We are to live a life controlled by Jesus. Focus because you life is over in a flash. Learn because you generally will not get a second chance. Be the kind of person the Lord can use and He will use you. Jesus is Lord.
