Live every day as though it is your last. One day you’ll get it right.

I saw this written on a calendar and to me it sounds a little bit discouraging and aimless. For a born again believer it is not a matter of ” one day you’ll get it right.” We are looking forward to the coming of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ–First Thessalonians 4:16– and dying for us is gain–Philippians 1:21–.

But what a challenge to live every day as though it is our last. As a preacher of the Gospel do you preach every sermon as if it is the last sermon you will ever preach in this life? It could well be your last opportunity to preach the Gospel, the Good News!

I love summers. And when I talk to the Lord I say:” Lord one more summer!” But there is one summer coming and that summer will be the last summer………! We talk like that of course the older we get.
