I HAVE BEEN STARING DEATH IN
THE FACE FOR SEVERAL MONTHS
NOW.
Do I need to tell you that it will change your priorities?
Most of my life I have been sort of a "hot rodder".
But how fast my car is does not matter - now.
In fact, of my several motorcycles,
it does not even matter if they run - now.
The outcome of the world series [What ever that is.]
does not matter.
The size of the house I live in does not matter.
Nor how large or small my bank account is.
When you are looking at death as being just around the
corner, you realize that most of what we think is important
in life is mere frivolous, shallow trivia.
I have more or less lived a "full" life. I am only 80
years old now. And if God is willing would like to
do a little more. But that is in God's hands.
LESSONS.
You may be only one half of my age. But that does not
mean you will out last me. How much more of your life
are you going to waste before you stand before the God
who gives you life?
Right now I am living on other people's blood.
The Bible tells us that the life is in the blood.
I will assure you, that is true.
But there is one more fact of life.
Jesus Christ willingly gave his blood for you so
that you can have real life here on earth now and
forever.
You will not make it without the blood of someone
else - the blood of Jesus Christ applied to your life.
Not well now, and certainly not in the life here
after.
