Life Is Short


Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom. Psalm 90:12

After recently watching footage from 911 disaster I am once again reminded life is short and tomorrow is promised to no one. This was a horrible day but any day a person loses a loved one before the ‘expected time’, whatever that means, is a bad day. 911 was particularly catastrophic because of the enormity of it all and how it affected all of us. 

When you go out the front door in the morning you may have plans for tomorrow but you don’t even know if today might be the day your heat beats it’s last time. Young and old, no was is immune. No one is guaranteed X number of years. Don’t live in fear of death because if you are a Christian who has given your life to Jesus there is nothing to fear.

“I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith” it says in 2 Timothy 4:7. When you leave this temporary dwelling place one day will that verse apply to you? Have you fought a good fight and worked for the kingdom or just for yourself? It’s not too late to make a U turn. Death has no sting except for the atheist and unbeliever who has rejected God. He does not wish any to perish it says in 2 Peter 3:9. Those believers in the Towers at the World Trade Center who believed, were instantly transported to be with their Heavenly Father that day in 2001. The best is yet to come!!

PRAYER: Lord Jesus help me never fear death or how I will die or anything to do with it but instead to embrace life and work for you. I pray for those who say there is no God or who mock you to repent before it is too late. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
