Day Ten - Get Busy Living

If I died today, what would I wish I would have done differently?

Hmmm….what perplexing question.

This in not home.  I am just passing through here.  It’s easy to forget that and get caught up in life and forget that all of this is temporary.

It’s very healthy for me to spend some time thinking about death.

When I go to Church, God ties to rearrange my priorities.  When I accept the Gospel, it wants to massively overhaul my priorities.

Death rearranges my priorities.  If I knew I had 3 years to live, what would I change on my schedule this year?  This week?

Stop thinking so much!  Live for the love of life or don’t live at all!  It’s time for me to get out of my head and focus on giving my best to God, to my family, to my work; to give the best of me in everything I do.

Focus:

It is healthy to reflect of the fact that life is short and we are all going to die.

Act:

If I died today, what would I wish I would have done differently?  Reflect.

Pray:

God, I can lose perspective from time to time.  Help me focus on the things that really matter so I can get busy living.

Amen.
