The Brevity of Life
Last night, I found out that a 21-year-old man that some of my siblings know was in a serious car accident. The last report I saw was that he’s in ICU fighting for his life. As I keep checking for an update and fervently praying that God will spare his life and allow him to fully recover, I am reminded of how quickly my life could be gone. I know in theory that I may not see tomorrow but, in reality, I expect to wake up and resume life as normal. As tragic as it is to see a young person so full of life and energy suddenly on the brink of death, it seems like it sometimes takes things like this to wake people up and make them examine their own life.
Are you making sure that each moment counts? Are you letting those around you know how much you love them? Are you walking with God as closely as you can? You never know when this moment may be your last. Don’t waste it.
