I recently reached out to a production company. Since I didn’t have one of my own, I wanted to propose a collaboration to create a movie. It was my very first attempt, so I began practicing. In the process, I found myself describing what I was offering as a sound that glorifies the name of Jesus—and in that moment, it hit me: Heaven has a future. And because we choose the way of the Lord, God is saying, “Then I must be heard in the sound you make.”
“Sing to the Lord a new song, for He has done marvelous things” (Psalm 98:1).
When we raise our children, we’re making a sound. When we choose certain careers and professions, we’re making a sound. Our marriages, our lifestyles, even our dress culture—they are all sounds. And in all of these, God wants His voice to be heard.
“Whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.” (1 Corinthians 10:31)
So the question is: Is our sound relevant to heaven’s future? Do our choices promote heaven’s agenda? Even when we choose to be silent or passive, we are still making a sound—because in this world, we are always choosing: either the kingdom of God or the kingdom of darkness.
“Choose this day whom you will serve... but as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.” (Joshua 24:15)
“He who is not with Me is against Me.” (Matthew 12:30)
Today, August 5, 2025, I solemnly declare:
I choose the way of the Lord.
Blending our voices in symphony with heaven’s isn’t always a smooth or easy journey. Just because it’s good doesn’t mean it will always be pleasant. The greatest definition of "good" we’ve ever known is God giving His Son to save us—and Jesus saying 'yes' to that divine agenda.
Goodness, therefore, is not self-serving. It embraces heaven’s purpose.
And in embracing this agenda, we can say, "This one life I’m living will count for heaven’s future.”
Stay Revived!
