As Christians, we should treat every day as if it will be the end of all things. We do not know the hour when our lives or the world will end. And so, we should do everything we can to fill our days with faith, hope, and love. We are all called to think the thoughts of God, to speak His words, and to do His good works. This requires us to be serious and sober-minded in our prayer lives and making sure we put aside some quiet time for God each and every day. It also asks us to be intense in our love and mercy so we can serve God and His children more perfectly. This isn’t always easy with all the distractions the world waves in front of us, but if we are to go to our ends with peaceful hearts, then we must die to ourselves and live through, for, with, and in Jesus Christ.
Do we treat each day we are given with the thanks we should? Are we serious about our prayers? How can we love God and others with more intensity?
O Lord, you are our beginning, middle, and end.
Amen.
