Hey friends of Thrive! The following verse made me chuckle a bit and I thought I would share it with you. It's from Daniel 12:
I chuckled because we are coming up on Dec. 21st 2012, what some are saying is the end of the world. Daniel was asking the same question around 500 years before Christ. It seems we are always wondering about our end. I can't tell you how many times I have heard "The end is near." Remember Y2K?
So here is what I am going to do. I do know life is far too short. Whether it's 12/21 or 50 years from now, life flys by and before you know it, the kids are out of the house and you are getting the senior discount at McDonalds. So for the next few weeks, I am going to say the things I need to say to those closest to me and do some of the things I would want to do if 12.21 was my last day. I propose we don't wait on reaffirming our love for family & friends, having some fun and making amends where necessary. After all, Life is too short to carry that type of baggage.
Between now and 12/21, whether it's the end of the world or not, will you join me in committing to really live fully for the next few weeks?
My Prayer for today: Lord, I pray that over the next few weeks, I would say what really needs to be said to those I love. By your spirit, show me what I need to let go of and what I need to forgive. Above all, remind me to have some fun!
Amen
