Kings come and kings go but what if you want to commit to a cause that is around for the long haul. Football teams come and football teams go but what happens to all the energy and commitment you put into a team that were flying high when they crash and burn. Film stars come and film stars go but how can you know that the star you are fan of will be around forever? Imagine committing to one of these kings in the passage. You commit your life to him, you are sold out and even go to war from him and then he gets trashed and is replaced by another king. That king then destroys you, throws you out of your home and leaves you with nothing. The same can happen to us when we commit to certain parts of our lives on this Earth. We commit to a band, change our style to fit them, buy all their stuff and go to all their concerts. We might spend every last penny we have buying their stuff and every last minute we have listening to their music. But what happens when they have enough dosh and break the band up? What are we left with? A Big fat nothing. That s why it is so reassuring to know that when we commit to the King of the universe every last piece of energy we put into worshipping Him is worthwhile. We know that what we do Jesus will be with us forever and he will not run away from us. We know that Jesus will be around tomorrow, because it tells us he will in the Bible. It says in Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever. Now that’s worth committing to.
