The Book of Our Chronicles

The Book Of Our Chronicles 
II Kings 20:20-21 NKJV
[20] Now the rest of the acts of Hezekiah—all his might, and how he made a pool and a tunnel and brought water into the city—ffdare they not written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Judah? [21] So Hezekiah rested with his fathers. Then Manasseh his son reigned in his place.

In Revelation 20:12  the Bible records , "And books were opened". The books record our deeds, and on Judgment Day, we are judged based on what's written in them about about our lives. We may not be conscious, but books are being written about our lives. No one may see you, but God's all seeing eyes  are magnetting everything to your records. Casey Lewis explains the plot and scope of our story being prepared, "...we have to understand that we are character’s in God’s story. God is the writer of the story, and we are the characters. His story starts at creation (Gen. 1:1). It ends with those in Christ living for all of eternity in a recreated world (Rev. 22). Everyone’s life on earth occurs somewhere in between those two events, and we are all apart of the overarching story of God". 
   We've come to the end of Hezekiah's life, but there are Chronicles of how he lived. Transpose that and fill in your story. What will it read? Lewis continue s, " If God is the writer of our story, the place we are at right now is by design. It is a part of God’s sovereign plan for our life". Psalm 139:13-16. You have to be conscious of how you play the part you are assigned by God. At the post mortem, you will be asked how you played. Be conscious. You wont play your part for ever. There's an entry, but there's also an exit. Theres a time for the house curtain to come down. Are you ready? Good morning.
