Two Things for Sure

They say that there are only  two things for sure—death and taxes.

Are your taxes done? They are due today. I know what you are thinking, “I will file for an extension”.

Just remember you can do that with taxes, but you can’t do that with the other sure thing--death.

When death calls your name, you can’t stop it.

So be ready by telling the people you love that you really do love them.  Not tomorrow--you don’t have that assurance--but today.

By keeping short accounts with family, friends and co-workers. Not tomorrow--you don’t have that assurance--but today.

By practicing forgiveness everyday. Not tomorrow--you don’t have that assurance--but today.

By fulfilling your God given purpose . You say, “I am not sure of what that is”.  Go to Matthew   22 :37 –39  & Matthew 28:19-20.

Don’t count your years, make your years count, and you will be ready.
