Next steps...

• Read and reflect on Paul’s words in Acts 20:21: “I have declared to both Jews and Greeks that they must turn to God in repentance and have faith in our Lord Jesus.” What do you need to repent of? Do you have faith in our Lord Jesus?
• Think about what task God has given to you.  Share with family members or friends what you believe you need to accomplish before your life on earth comes to an end.
• If you knew you were going to die, what advice would you give to those who love you?
