What if Your Life Ended Today?
What if Your Life Ended Today? avatar

The Bible reminds us that life is a vapor, “a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes” (James 4:14). If this is the case, then how should we approach each day? In fact, how should we prepare ourselves just in case our life ends today?

As I was reading The Valley of Vision yesterday, I was greatly convicted by this phrase from the prayer titled “Morning Dedication” (221):

May I speak each word as if my last word,
and walk each step as my final one.

If my life should end today,
let this be my best day.
