Daily Devotion: More Beyond

Bible Reading: I Corinthians 15:1-19

Key Verse: Verse 19 – “If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.”

Key Words: If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.

Thought: Life is not about you, and it's not about me; life is all about Jesus Christ.


It is because of Jesus Christ that we have hope beyond this life.

In Valladolid, Spain, where Christopher Columbus died in 1506, stands a monument commemorating the great discoverer. Perhaps the most interesting feature of the memorial is a statue of a lion destroying one of the Latin words that had been part of Spain's motto for centuries. Before Columbus made his voyages, the Spaniards thought they had reached the outer limits of earth. Thus their motto was "Ne Plus Ultra," which means "No More Beyond." The word being torn away by the lion is "Ne" or "no," making it read "Plus Ultra." Columbus had proven that there was indeed "more beyond."

So it is in life – there is more beyond.



What to do:

Live as though this were your last day on earth – because one day it will be!
