Week 8: Thursday God's Blessings Withdrawn

Everything in this life has an end. Even the gifts God has given us and thework He has assigned us pass away. They find their lasting significance inhow they affect the life that never ends.Thus, we receive God’s gifts in this life as a sacred trust, knowing thatthey are placed in our care but belong to God, and that we must give anaccount. “For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, sothat each one may receive what is due for what he has done in the body,whether good or evil” (2 Corinthians 5:10, ESV).
