Week 25 - Day 3

Ecclesiastes 7-9

*Click here to read this passage:

“For death is the destiny of every man; the living should take this to heart.”

The reality that every one has to face is that death is part of life.  We have one life and it is but a breath, and no one knows when their time on this earth is over.  If you knew you only had 5 years to live what would you do differently? What if it was 1 year? 1 month?  What would matter most?  What type of legacy would you leave behind?

God gives each of us a purpose as well as special gifts.  He leads us to certain places at certain times to use us to impact the world for Him and His Kingdom.  I don’t want to waste the time and the life He’s given me. 

“You do not even know what will happen tomorrow.  What is your life?  You are a mist that appears for a little while and then vanishes.” (James 4:14)


“Be very careful, then, how you live – not as unwise, but as wise, making the most of every opportunity, because the days are evil.  Therefore do not be foolish, but understand what the Lord’s will is.”  (Ephesians 5:15-17a)
