Title: Spilled (US) Spilt (UK), any remedy?

-

2 Samuel 14:14
For we must needs die, and are as water spilt on the ground, which cannot be gathered up again; neither doth God respect any person: yet doth he devise means, that his banished be not expelled from him.

Devotion: I attended a service of songs for a friend's brother's burial last evening where the verse above was preached. It dawned on me that everyone must "NEEDS DIE" one day. 

The man who was celebrated was a fine gentle man, kind, lovely, humble and worshiped God, even my elder brother who happened to know him gave the same testimony when I got back home. Therefore I can safely conclude by human criteria that a Saint was spilt. He was spilt and cannot be gathered up again. That is the destiny of mankind; all must be spilt at one time or the other, some very early a few hours to few years while some others may live long above hundred but all "needs die". 

But think again what happens after you are spilt, we cannot gather you. You are banished from us, we cannot relate with you again only in dreams and memories of you will remain. 

God wants you to return to Him and live with Him, I know devil also wants you as well but if you chose devil that is eternal banishment from God, your creator; who loves you so much that He devised a way for of escape from banishment for you and me - John 3:16. 

Dear reader, let's chose the way of God today, the way of Salvation through Christ the son of God. Tomorrow might be too late (2 Cor. 6:2) you may be spilt today, nobody knows the exact time.

Title: When your time shall be over, you'll fly away.

Psalms 90:10  The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. Devotional: Late music legend – Peter Tosh sang a song with this title many years ago. It came to mind yesterday while I listened to a beautifully delivered sermon at a burial. I therefore penned this devotional on same title. Do not be deceived, at a point in your life you’ll fly away.   There comes a day when the tapestry of your earthly existence is folded. The moments of struggle, joy, triumph, and trials will all coalesce into a story complete. When that time comes, the soul, unburdened by the weight of the mortal frame, ascends beyond the veil of this world—taking flight toward eternal rest.   You are not bound to the temporal; your essence is celestial. As the Psalmist declared, "The days of our years are threescore years and ten...it is soon cut off, and we ...
