life part 2

Each day we have here is a gift, tomorrow is and was and never will be promised. A friend of mine wrote this and it truly inspired me to really think on my actions! Each day we have here is a gift, tomorrow is, was and never will be promised. Are you living today like this is your last? Am I living like there is no tomorrow??? Sadly no, not everyday. Matthew 10:32-33 tells us in black and white "Whoever acknowledges me before men, I will also acknowledge him before my Father in heaven. but whoever disowns me before men, I will disown him before my Father in heaven." Today I am going to acknowledge Him before myself, before my thoughts, before my words, before my actions so one day I will be acknowledged in front of His Father...thats what I want. I want to love Him and to serve Him....and to do that we MUST become diligent and intentional with every step we take in our day, because who knows, this may be all we have left and we not even know it.

Life

Wow what an Amazing Gift!!! God gives us life within an instant we are formed. He tells us in his word before you were ever concieved I knew you. I nitted you together in your mothers womb! Wow what a deep profounding thought. God the creator of the universe knew me before i was even conceived. He tells us in Jeremiah 29:11 "I know the plans I have for you declairs the Lord, plans to prosper and not fail plans to give you hope and a future." Wow so why is so many people are failing in this world, so many people are lost and hurting. It breaks my heart to see people dont know my God personally as their lord and savior and as there friend. Life can be taken away from us so quickly. We are not promised tomarrow so why is it people take forgranted today? After fallowing the Staat family blog and seeing their perfectly healthy 4 month old baby just stoped breathing it really made me cherrish my own children. I mean only 4 short months of this little girl being on earth she was taken back to Heaven. My heart hurs for that family but it got me thinking even more. How much more does way r heavenly fathers heart hurt when we are lost and have no way of returning to him. We all have a choice to make butthis made me realize how important it is to make that choice now. Not tomarrow not next month or even in a couple years, age is not a factor on when our lives will end. I love the saying "sieze the day", "live like you were dying." No one knows the day nore the hour of his return or the moment you will draw your last breath. So with that said are you living the Christ like example you want people to see? Do people see your actions the way they would if Christ were standing before you? just something to think about. Do we live to lives or are we real in who we are?

Just food for thought!
  

Reflecting Back
