TOPIC:
THIS WAKE UP CALL: LIFE IS A HANDBREADTH!
( PSALM 39:1-13).
A very beloved Canadian author, Catherine Pulsifer and her husband Bryon, told the following story:
"During the month of September, a friend of mine ( Catherine) lost her husband in an accident.This accident was SUDDEN AND CERTAINLY UNEXPECTED. IT DROVE HOME THE REALIZATION THAT YOU JUST DON'T KNOW WHEN A LOVED ONE IS NO LONGER GOING TO BE WITH YOU! W sometimes take our loved ones for granted and we expect that they will be with us forever. However, as we all know, life does not work that way and sometimes we get a wake up call that shows us and makes us stand back and realize how short life is."
Oh, get the Holy Ghost's burning message in today's devotional:
SOMETIMES WE TAKE OUR LOVED ONES FOR GRANTED, AND WE EXPECT THAT THEY WILL BE WITH US FOREVER. BUT DON'T FORGET, SOMEDAY, A LOVED ONE IS NO LONGER GOING TO BE WITH YOU! When my earthly father and friend who was 90, was buried in November 29th two years ago, Vs. 5 of today's scripture hit my soul: :Behold thou hast made my days as handbreadths......" Yes, every life is a handbreadth - short and vain! There Will Always Be A Final Goodbye, A Last Phone Call, A Last Breakfast, Lunch Or Dinner, A Last Handshake, Etc. Yes! There Is Always A Last Mile In your Life's Journey! So, in this year 2017, as you pray against premature death, endeavor to be an aroma of kindness, forgiveness and love to those you see today!
TAKE NO ONE FOR GRANTED AND DO NOT POSTPONE ANY CARE, CALL OR DUTY! Make that call now because tomorrow belongs to God! After all, it's just one life and someday, you and they will depart planet earth for home! oh, Sweet Home! Life is a handbreadth! Make that move! make that call TODAY!
