I was born and I am alive,
but I have not lived.
I breath air and blood flows through my veins,
but still I have not lived.
I have survived.
I have struggled and even had to fight.
I have loved and lost
but I still not lived.
I have danced and sang songs
but still I have not lived.
I need to do better than this.
God did not give me life to just survive, or to merely exist. Yet that is all I have done. I say it is time for another change in my life. Time to start living life and not just surviving.
John 10:10 “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I came that they may have life, and have it abundantly.
And I will make of you a great nation, and I will bless you with abundant increase of favors and make your name famous and distinguished, and you will be a blessing dispensing good to others.
If there was a “Loved It” to click, I would have. The Kingdom of God is about real life now and even more life later! Thank you for the reminder!
