WHAT IF..You were told that you had only six months to live--What would you do? What changes might you make in your life? You might write letters to friends expressing your appreciate and love for them. Perhaps you would seek out people whom you have wronged and ask for forgiveness. The bad news might jog your memory of an old debt and thus you would repay that which has been overlooked. What might be the first thing you would do tomorrow? 1 Chron 29: 15 For we are here for but a moment, strangers in the land as our fathers were before us; our days on earth are like a shadow, gone so soon, without a trace. TLB
THE POINT DEAR FRIEND IS, DON'T WAIT TILL YOU ONLY HAVE SIX MONTHS TO LIVE. DO IT NOW!
JESUS HAS GIVEN US A GLORIOUS GOAL
