The fire

I'm not sure the chapter or anything my preacher was talking about but i believe it came from revelations. As i am struggling with my walk with Christ right now it seems like i don't pay attention to my preachers. I payed attention today and ii felt like he was speaking to me. As i go to cowboy church with my dad he has a weird way of saying things. He was talking about a friend who called him and was talking about how he was trying to follow god but it always seemed like he was looking from the other side of the fence. I feel like that is were i am at. He was also talking about the fire that the 3 guys were walking into or really thrown into. The guys walked out of the fire unharmed. That was in the bible. Then he said something and it really made me think. He said "would you rather spend an hour in fire or a eternity." really that is so true when i die even if it is a slow death i rather spend that time and go to heaven than a quick bullet and an eternity in hell. He also said when the time comes your standing with a friend and God comes to take u home and he starts separating you god looks at u and says "why didn't u try to convert him", and you said cause i was scared we wouldn't be friends" sooner or later your friend would forgive you and probably thank u but if u don't say anything to your friend than he will be separated and u wont be friends for eternity. That's all i have to say but just think live in the fire or travel through the fire.
