Life. It does not last for ever. We think that it will go on. We think that tragedy will not strike us. We are after all, seemingly so in good spirits and good health.
But think what we may, it does not last for ever.
This is why it is very very important to live in the moment. To pay attention to life. To cherish the times. To give thanks for each moment that we are alive. We cannot live on autopilot. We cannot go blithely on as if this will last forever.
As Bill Gaither sang so many years ago, "yesterday's gone and tomorrow may never come, but we have this moment today."
Pay attention. If you are asleep, wake up. See those around you. Thank them for being there. Tell them you love them. Savor every moment.
It's a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good.
