Do Not Take The Gift of Life For Granted

    
    "Finally, brothers and sisters, rejoice! Strive for full restoration, encourage one another, be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you.
     Greet one another with a holy kiss."
                                                                                                                   2 Cor 13:11-12 NIV

If you are reading this you have reason to rejoice. If you are reading this, it means you woke up this morning to another day. God has chosen to give you another day to live life reconciled to Him and to your neighbors. Give life a real chance to live in peace; to live in the light; to love one another; and to rejoice in the many things that God has given you.  Do not take for granted this gift of life that was given to you and to others. Do not throw even one minute away on trivial pursuits or vain hopes. One day this gift will be taken from you.

It is inevitable that one day we will all die. (Heb 9:27) But, in the meantime God has chosen for you to live life here on earth. He has a purpose. He has a good purpose for you to rise each morning. Live that purpose! Live life in Christ that you might rejoice in the life that God has given you!

May God grant us peace as we love and encourage one another to live life in such a way that it gives glory to God!

God's Peace - Pr. J
