: The Pages Of Our Lives : Two
|
Posted By: Judith A. Birt on January 08, 2013 With Every Sunrise We Are Presented A Fresh, Blank Page In Our Life’s Journal. The Lord Is A God Of New Beginnings, And He Gives Us The Freedom To Fill Each Page With Whatever We Choose. Because Of The Demands Of Modern Life, With The Breakneck Hustle And Bustle Of Daily Existence, We Often Don’t Even Skim Over Our Journal Entries At The End Of The Day – Or Week, Or Year. If We Could Review The Pages Of Our Lives Up Until Today, Would We Be Pleased? Is God Pleased? Would We Find Abundant Living? If We Only Scribbler And Scurry Away The Years That Are Given Us, How Remorseful A Thing It Will Be After The Last Page Is Written. When We And God Look Back Over The Scrawled Pages That Led Up To The Last One, Suppose They Are Filled With Ink That Is Nonsense. Suppose All The Pages Are Blurred And Have No Meaning. It Could Easily Happen – And Has And Does. Page-After-Page Of A Life Filled With Hum-Drum Existence Of Meaningless Life. What Worse Thing Could Happen For A Christian Than To Live Out All His Page - Come To The Last One, And Leave Behind Journals Only Worth Burning. Instead, Let's Allow The Lord To Lead Us, Inspire Us, Push And Prod Us To Leave Behind Pages That Are Branded With Words, Deeds And Prayers That Influence Lives For His Kingdom. What Else Is Relevant? What Else Will Have Any Lasting Purpose Or Meaning? Only God's Word And Eternal Souls Will Remain. Recognizing Those Priorities Will Help Us See The Importance Of Simplicity. God Can Forgive The Wasted Pages Of Our Lives And Help Us To Savor The Unblemished Days Ahead. We'll Need To Slow Down And Remain Single - Minded On Him. Let's Make A Commitment Now To Fill The Unwritten Pages, Day - By - Day, With Lasting Moments - Ones That Will Influence The Eternal Destiny Of Our Fellow Man. And Then We'll Whisper, "Thank You, Lord, For Abundant New Beginning. Let Us Walk With Joy In Your Son - Light Through The Rest Of Our Lives' Pages." + A Bible Verse + … Be Very Careful, Then, How You Live - Not As Unwise, But As Wise, Making The Most Of Every Opportunity, Because The Days Are Evil. Ephesians 5:15,16 Take A Fresh Page In Your Journal And Draw A Picture That Portrays An Aspect Of A New Beginning, Such As A Sunrise, Baby In A Nest, Or An Opening Rose Bud.
