So, I said I'd be back & here I am...finally!! Wow, good thing I don't just have 1 month to live....life is crazy-busy & everyday seems to speed on by!!!!
Well, Celebration Church sent out a question to all of us asking what would be the 5 things we'd do if we only had '1 month to live'...I was thinking about this...it's such a tough question. But,, if I knew I only had one month...#1 I would speed up our move to Cleveland, Ohio & organize an outreach to the City!!!! Sounds huge, but not too huge for God. #2, I would cling to the Word of God like I've never done before, because I believe there's Power in the Word & if I'm dying of some weird sickness I know his power is More powerful than any disease!!! I would stand firmly upon His Word!! #3, I would slow down and spend every waking moment w/ my husband & children investing in them the love of God & my love for them.....not that I don't already invest in them, but I don't do enough of it..., I get too busy. #4 I would take a week & go on a cruise because I never got to have a Real honeymoon and go on one w/ my honey, so we would go on one w/ our 5 kids and we would invite Everyone in our family....LOL!!!! Then, Sean & I would sneak off and enjoy 'us'...just for a litte while..lol!! #5 I would make time to write the songs that are in my heart & sing them w/ everything...worshipping & praising my King of Kings celebrating my life on earth, but also celebration my eternal life which is Even Better!!!!!
I think of how apostle Paul said, 'it is better for you that I remain here in this body, but it would be better for me to go and be w/ Christ in heaven.....'
I don't ever want to love this life so much that heaven seems Less than...you know?
I don't ever want to fall out of love w/ Christ & be sucked in to the neverending pit of unsatisfaction....
As I long for eternity, I also long to be here w/ my loved ones....evangelizing this world who needs to know the name of Jesus....know that He came for them....& I'm to carry that message everywhere w/ my life...
As apostle paul said in the bible, 'it's like a fire in my bones...I can hardly contain it..there is no quenching it..'
That is how I feel about the gospel....the love of Christ....and it's not to be contained.
So, I'll end w/ this. Let's remember our purpose everyday, Let's not lose sight of how temporal the things of this world are, Let's love, help, serve & when we do the opposite of that, let's be quick to change. I don't know about you, but I want to leave a legacy!!
