Lazy Summer Days

Okay, so it's summer time. School is out, swimming is in, and curfews are late. But, just because school is not in session, does that have to mean that our brains and bodies go into "veg-mode"?

Psalm 90:12 says "Teach us to number our days, that we may present to you a heart of wisdom". Even in the summer months our days need numbering. We don't know if we have tomorrow, so we must not waste today. It's during these summer months that we can really do the kingdom work that God has called us to do. No homework,or 8hr days trapped in the classroom, you are now free to pursue God with reckless abandon!! Seize the day friends. Don't sit on the couch and be a potato, call up a friend that doesn't know Christ and share with them the wonderful news that Jesus died on the cross to pay the penalty for their sins.

I went to the hospital to give a ride to a homeless guy today. He told me he only has a few months to live because of a brain tumor he has. I asked him where he's gonna go when he dies. He said "Heaven, I hope". I told him there is a way he can "Know" he's going to heaven(1 John 5:13). "Trust in Christ's death on the cross as payment fo ryour sin, and follow Jesus with your life and eternal life is yours" I said. The answer he gave me was sad, he said "I'll pay for my own mistakes!" I dropped him off at the shelter and said goodbye, probably for eternity. Don't waste today, because your friends may not have tomorrow...
