I have watched it in movies, read it in books, heard about it from stories but this morning I witnessed it, the gruesome claws of death leaving behind a heavy stench of futility, the resultant effect of lives snatched away within minutes of crazy motions.
Those guys probably left home like everyone else early this monday morning, told their peeps they were gonna be back latest by even. But just like the 9/11 victims, their world came crashing down without any prior notice. Well, all is well that ends well. I hope they ended well.
What about you and me? Going through life as if we 're living out a movie, allowing the challenges and the struggles of life to weigh us down, forgetting most times that we've got the greater gift (life) and some of us, the greatest gift (eternal life).
We whine, some a lil, some a lot; "it's monday again, got to go to work!" or " geez, classes are starting again!". We usually don't put our mind to the fact that every dawn of a new day breeds a new opportunity to get it right and do it right, a new privilege to make the right decisions.
I'm just gonna challenge you this morning to decide to make your life count, first, by putting Christ at the centre of it, let Jesus be the unassailable Pillar that holds you high. Decide to engage His Spirit every step of the way, never allow the voices of the world to silence His voice in your ears. Then, lend a helping hand, help someone up, give several people reasons to smile this week and lastly,
Philippians 4
