There is no better motivation to clean like finding out you have company coming. The Dusty ceiling and cob webs seem to grow before your eyes. The fence needs mending but it isn’t important until the cows get out, then its a rush to fix it.
And what about living? Are we living well? Are we accomplishing things we hope to, need to? Touching lives in a positive way? Making sure our love ones know they are loved and important. Do the people God brings before us feel HIs presence in us?
What if you were told you were terminal? You have limited time? Would that change how you view your life? Your relationships? What you want or need to accomplish before you go?
Well Im here to remind us, we are all Terminal . We all have limited time. This body will die and our time on Earth will come to an end. What are you going to do before it does?
Our world today has many heart breaking moments, many scary trials, fear, disease, illnesses, hate and indifference . And when we stop living fully, we are allowing the thief to take our breath from us. Get out there!! LIVE!! There is so much beauty , so much love and so much worth still out there. FIND IT, embrace it, grow it. By Living we defeat the enemy. By living we are making sure those we leave behind, have hope and encouragement to LIVE too. Joy does not depend on life circumstances. It depends on our internal hope in Christ. We can be in the middle of the storm and still have joy! God gave us a gift when he sent his son. He freed us from our sins, he opened heaven gates to us!! That alone is reason enough to have joy…to live. To live well!!!
The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came so that they would have life, and have it abundantly . John 10:10 NAS
