Resting, self-absorbed…..ready to do it (daily life) over & over & over & over again….living for tomorrow after tomorrow after tomorrow after tomorrow; resting and only arising to play and selfishly live for ourselves…..WHEN WE SHOULD BE FOCUSED UPON GOD’S WILL FOR TODAY, FULLY FOCUSED UPON GOD,….YES, LIVING FOR THIS ONE TODAY & WITHIN THIS ONE GIFT OF THIS ONE DAY. 

• Life is what happens while we are living.  How often have we heard someone say, “I just can’t believe she’s getting so big.  Just yesterday, we brought her home from the hospital.
• “Life. How quickly must it pass by before we wake up?
• Life. How deep must we go before we realize we are sinking?
• Life.  How far must we go before we discover we are lost?
• Life. How much must we turn before we realize we have turned our backs?

God told His prophet Moses while on Mount Sinai, “They have quickly turned aside from the way which I commanded them…”   (Exodus 32: 8).

We are only given just one go around with this thing we call “my life,” & then the Bible clearly tells us…….next, comes death and God’s judgment.

Life.  It’s happening people!!!!

We better walk through this one day God has given to us—–fully awake—–because who’s to say we will get another morning to arise. We better walk through this one day God has given to us—–fully cognizant & fully aware of those surrounding us—–because April 11, 2021 will NEVER be given to us to walk through again……….NEVER!

We better walk through this one day God has given to us—–fully focused upon God’s will for our day—–because tomorrow will NOT bring the same opportunities to worship God.  We better walk through this one day—–FULLY AWAKE!!!

• ***FULLY AWAKE.
• ***NOT SLEEP-WALKING.
• ***NOT SINKING, BUT WALKING UPON THE WATER, FAITHFULLY KEEPING OUR EYES UPON GOD.
• ***REALIZING WE ARE TOTALLY LOST WITHOUT GOD.
• ***WALKING TOWARD OUR ETERNAL DESTINATION WITH OUR EYES FULLY FOCUSED UPON OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. 

Artist David Dunn sings a beautiful melody “The Long Way Home,” and this lyrical poem reminds us how to live this one day of this one life God has given to us (just as God also reveals in His Word). 

“This life seems like the longest part/Even though eternity is ours.

And on our way to streets of gold/Let’s savor every mile of this road/

We’re not where we’re going/And we’re not lost where we are/

Takin’ the long way home/Just takin’ the long way home/…

Living life like every moment counts/

Here on earth with kingdom eyes/Treasuring the gift of borrowed time/

We’re not where we’re going/And we’re not lost we’re we are/

Takin’ the long way home/Just takin’ the long way home…

There’s beauty on the backroads/Even when this journey’s hard/

Takin’ the long way home/Just takin’ the long way home/

No, we won’t miss the view while we’re on this climb/Oh the stories we’ll take to the other side…

The Other side…/We’re not where we’re going…”

Let us today—-not miss the view & not miss the people God places into today’s path, but let us forever remember——God’s will is perfect.    ALWAYS!!!

Let us today—-not become impatient in our prayers, complaining as we wait for God to answer, but let us forever remember——God’s timing is perfect.    ALWAYS!!!

Let us not today—–not become forgetful………this earth is NOT OUR FOREVER HOME, but Let Us NEVER forget & Let Us………FOREVER remember that heaven awaits!!!

AND SO, LET US LIVE TODAY LIFE………FULLY FOCUSED UPON GOD & FULLY AWAKE & FULLY OBEDIENT TO OUR LORD!!!
