I have done my prayers. Now I am just sitting here enjoying this beautiful morning. Enjoying the breeze on my face, hearing the birds sing and seeing my outside cats play.
I have been reflecting on a conversation I has yesterday with a friend. We got onto the subject of death. She said she was afraid of dying. I asked her why. She said she was afraid of being forgotten. I told her I was not afraid , and my only hope is that I had made a difference in someone's life, that I hoped someone found Jesus because of me, that I was looking forward to my cabin on the woods where I could walk with Jesus.
It made me stop and think how so many people I have talked to are afraid of dying. To me, death is part of life. That is the only thing that is certain in our lives. We do not know when that time will come and we should be ready, ready to go home and be with our Lord. We should enjoy life everyday. We should tell our loved ones we love them. We should use our best China, wear our favorite cloth. Do not save them for tomorrow. Enjoy life now.
Lord help me not waste the time I have left. Help me enjoy it as if it was my last day, for you alone know the time and the hour. Help me grow on love for you.
