Live Everyday As Though It Were Your Last

Going through this most painful time in my life losing the love of my life, I’ve learned a few things.

  1. I’ve learned that this life is fragile.  It can be robust one minute, the next minute it can be gone.

    Psalm 39:4 King James Version (KJV)

    4 Lord, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is: that I may know how frail I am.

  2. Nothing on this earth is certain. Even though we might live a clean healthy, active  life, there things beyond our control. Nothing on this earth is certain.We may still be stricken with sickness and disease
  3. Cherish each moment with your loved ones even when you have quarrels and disagreements. God could call them home at a moments notice.
  4. To live each as though it were your last. My mother always told us that. She was wise and because we never know when we will breathe our last breath. Only God knows

    James 4:13-15 King James Version (KJV)

    13 Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain:

    14 Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

    15 For that ye ought to say, If the Lord will, we shall live, and do this, or that.

  5. To prepare ourselves for the next life when God calls us. If we want to spend eternity in heaven with Him we need to make sure our names are written in the Lamb’s book of Life. It’s simply to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ. He loves us so much that He died to take away our sins so that we live with Him in eternity forever.  It’s a gift and it’s free.

    John 3:16 King James Version (KJV)

    16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

    Acts 16:31 King James Version (KJV)

    31 And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.

  6. Trust God no matter what. I have grown closer to God now more than I have ever been. Because I know my Chester is with Him and is safe and secure and that I know because I believe Jesus Christ as my personal savior, I know I will one day be reunited with my husband and my two kids that went to be with Jesus years ago,one day. I have that hope and that’s what I lean on. Jesus gives me comfort. I don’t know what I would do if I didn’t have that hope. He has promised me He will never leave me nor forsake me.

Deuteronomy 31:6 King James Version (KJV)

  1. 6 Be strong and of a good courage, fear not, nor be afraid of them: for the Lord thy God, he it is that doth go with thee; he will not fail thee, nor forsake thee.

Hebrews 13:5 King James Version (KJV)

  1. 5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
