Truly successful people will live forever.

It doesn’t matter if you can:

  • build empires,
  • become a trillionaire,
  • employ tens of thousands of people, or even
  • change the world for the better

Those things are fine. And if you’ve done, or are doing, any of them, then you’re one of the successful people. By worldly standards. But if you never trust your Creator, you will lose your soul. And that’s the complete opposite of success. That’s failure on a scale you can’t imagine.

Truly successful people also know what success isn’t.

And the main thing it isn’t is temporary.

That’s why I say the key to success can be found in 13 letters. It’s not like the DaVinci code using 13 special letters in an obscure alphabet. Far from it. In fact, no letters could be less obscure than these. You’ll find them in the bestselling book of all time.

I’m talking about the 13 letters Paul wrote to the Romans, Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, Thessalonians, and Timothy, Titus, and Philemon. Over and over in those letters Paul shares the key to success. And it’s clearly trusting in Jesus to change you and give you eternal life. Not temporary wealth and influence.

Without eternal life all your efforts and influence lead to failure.

So, what are you doing to make a difference for now and forever? Do you think a new computer software, or so-called artificial intelligence, or self-driving car is gonna be a lasting legacy? Will you be able to create something so powerful the world will never forget your name? If so, I say…think again. But feel free to leave me a comment or send me a message showing me where I miss the point.

A word to the confounded,
Pour light into your eyes.
If you expect more than neglect,
Get wisdom; yeah get wise.

If you appreciate Paul’s letters, let’s stay connected. It’s super easy. Here’s how:
