Recently a close female clergy friend of ours passed away, and she was only in her fifties. She was a very energetic, strong woman. She loved going to the gym to workout. She always had a pleasant smile on her face. She was always jogging, loved shooting the basketball, and played on a local softball team. She looked very healthy and physically fit. The day she transitioned stunned everyone. As I write this morning, I’m painfully reminded of how delicate and brief life is.
Beloved, we shouldn’t take anything for granted but be appreciative to God. The Apostle James says in 4:14 “For you are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.” To an unbeliever, this is a scary thought but for us believers, we stand on what the word says in Philippians 1:21 “living is Christ and dying is gain.”
So, as we finish this week head into the weekend, let us live according to God’s will and tell others about His goodness, “And Also” reach out and touch (hug) your loved ones and tell them you love them, BECAUSE TELLING THEM LATER JUST MIGHT BE – TOO LATE.
Weekend Prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for the life and blessings You gave us. We trust everything about You, and we put all things into Your care and ask You to help us live under Your will. Lord, we love You. In Jesus’ Mighty Name, Amen and Amen.
I LOVE YOU ALL!!! Have a blessed Friday and awesome weekend Everyone. :-D.
