Whats your RSVP?

So I was considering the option of people 'maybe attending' an event, say like on facebook. Personally, I love the option of selecting 'maybe' because it creates the possibility of sidestepping commitment. I don't have to secure my place at an event thus committing my time and place on my social calender. However, by saying 'not attending,' you have shut yourself off to the option of going to that event. For no apparent reason, while in the shower I was thinking about this set of options...You RSVP to almost any event on earth securing or rejecting the invitation.

What about your arrival to heaven? Whats your RSVP look like for that day? People sometimes treat it as if there is a 'maybe attending' option and that 'yes' or 'no' aren't the only responses. We are all guilty of, at times, treating life as if we just checked the 'maybe' box. Our lives, at times, show mixed responses to what we choose when asked 'Whats your heavenly RSVP?' If 'yes' was checked, then why do our lives not always display that? Do people look at you and know, through your actions and life, that you checked the 'yes' box? I know I've failed in displaying this attitude before and know it'll probably happen again...BUT that shouldn't ever be my attitude. I should be living in a way that says 'you bet i checked yes and I'm gonna do the best I can the show people that.' I signed up for the commitment when I said yes to Jesus Christ and my heavenly arrival. *I feel like all these thoughts and becoming jumbled and mushed together, so i apologize if that is your thought reading this* What things in our life create confusion for people regarding the choice we've made? Is it our bias about our religious opinions? Do we discredit anything that is different from our unique view into this life? I'd bet each of us have something we could think of in that area... WHAT IS IT? A verse I used a couple posts ago also very much applies..

2 Peter 1:10-11 says, '¹⁰Therefore, my brothers, be all the more eager to make your calling and election sure. For if you do these things, you will never fall, ¹¹and you will receive a rich welcome into the eternal kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.'

Christ is with you and in you in everything you do...don't be afraid of showing it! love y'all - ryan
