It’s inevitable-we’re all going to die. There, I said it. And now that I’ve started off this post on a happy note . . . Since we know we’re going to die, then it goes without saying, we will assuredly stand before God in that lovely little thing called Judgment. Wouldn’t it be good to know the questions God will never ask you?
Now, I’m not always heaven minded. I don’t tend to have what they call an “eternal perspective.” I’m pretty much a today-is-the-day-kind-of-girl. But I know that much of what consumes me, what consumes us ad nauseam, is not what the Lord is consumed with. He is consumed with love. He is an all-consuming fire (Hebrew 12:29).

Yet, when we consider these things, and I mean really consider them, perhaps we would think of Judgment a bit differently. When we are standing before God and we are asked to give an account of our lives, what will He ask us? I doubt He will pose many questions regarding the things we find so pressing today. I’d like to suggest some questions God will never ask you:
