Topic: Life (06/15/06)
Such are the days:
Live to love, love to live. Accept to reject, reject to be accepted. Compromise to keep peace, strife because of compromise. Stress because of time, not enough time, the cause of stress.
What more to say, but, do we have any regrets? Have we accomplished all to be accomplished? Do we merely walk around dreaming of what we would love to do, only to live despairingly in what we hate? Why do we make it so hard, when the answers are in front of us?
To live is to die, to die is to gain! One of the best quotes spoken by the Apostle Paul. Until we gain insight on what he said, all of the above is what we will do. Question everything, without ever answering one question.
If to live is to die, and to die is to gain; why do we walk around loving the things we should hate and despising the things we should love? We must get to the point of what our lives are for!
Live for Christ sacrificing what we want in order to do His will. Die to ourselves so that we may live a life worth living. One full of peace in a time that is so chaotic! One full of happiness in a life so miserable! One full of love, in a world full of hatred!
Don’t merely speak about truth, live what we know is truth! Yes! That is where we have missed it! Our faith, without works is dead! If we aren’t being the example that we claim to live by, then what are we teaching the world in the ways of living?
We must go through life examining ourselves daily, so that others won’t be led astray! We must rise up and be the bride in such a time as this! We must live our lives as if we have no tomorrow! The last question to ask: Are there any regrets in your life that you thought was worth living?
