The Point of Intersect

Written by Justin Neil Gaynor

Seeking Immortality

There are great and wonderful things that we can do with our lives, gentlemen. You are hardwired to desire to make a significant impact with the years that you have. We seek glory, honor, and immortality in many different ways, and many of those ways end up being fruitless. Wasting time, money, and resources. The fact is that while we all have the capacity to do great things, we tend to be easily deceived when our motivations are not as they ought to be. We ought always to seek to glorify God, trusting that our glory, honor, and immortality does and will come from Him. This is one of the primary lessons that we learn from the theological reality of the Holy Trinity. The Holy Spirit directs us to the Word, and the Word directs us to the Father, who directs us to the Word, who directs us to the Spirit in this symphonic dance of sacrificial love that creates, sustains and causes growth. Many times, being a peacemaker is a lonely place because you refuse to take sides as your heart is focused on something better and higher.
