I’m panting now. I’ve been running through the forest, over roots and under branches. The woods are so thick, I can’t even see the sky. Finally, I reach the border of the woods. What? A river? Now what? I’m being pursued by a man, dressed in all black. I don’t know who he is, but he’s fast and gaining speed.

The wind is blowing my hair and I’m looking for a way across the river. I can swim, but the currant is moving too fast. I’d be sucked down and drowned. I’m sweating, not from heat, but from fear. I catch a glimpse of him behind me and I search around more frantically. I see what looks to be a row boat. I run over to it and sure enough, it’s a boat. It’s old and rugged, but it should work! I feel temporary relief. I give it a shove but it’s stuck.

I gasp as I hear the leaves move right behind me. He’s there. I shove, harder this time and the boat shoots out into the water, leaving me behind. Without another thought, I jump into the water.

Cold. Fast. I’m sucked under. I’m going to drown. This is my last day. I may not get another breath. Where will I go afterward? Heaven? Hell? What have I done with my life? Jesus! Help me! I feel myself fly into the air. I grab another breath and then and sucked back down. Wait? What was that my head just bumped? I tear through the surface and grab hold of the boat. Lifting myself in, I flop, causing the boat to sink a little more. But I’m safe. Thankyou Jesus!! I look behind and see the man, still on the surface, anger on his face. He hoped I had drowned. But I didn’t. Jesus saved me. I was safe. I am going to live a longer life. Today isn’t my day to die.

The Bible says in Jeremiah 33:3:

“Call unto me and I will answer thee…”

If you need God today people, call on him. You don’t know when you will die. Where is your eternal destination?
