Believe In Now

Even if you are not a big football fan...you have probably heard the name Tom Brady. The great quarterback with the GQ looks and laser right arm. He was the National Football League...MVP last year. His team, the New England Patriots, won three Super Bowls in four years and almost had a 19-0 perfect season last year.

Tom Brady is a great Quarterback who has accomplished so much in a short time that he is a lock to be in the National Football League Hall Of Fame.

On Sunday.....in the first game of the season....23 minutes into the game.....Tom Brady was hit in his knee. One hit...out for the whole season! That is the shocking reality of how sports can work. One day a hero...the next day on the sideline making no impact a all.

Life can be just like that too. One day....living the good life...the next you can be in a car wreck, be diagnosed with fast terminal cancer, a hurricane could hit, or a multitude of other things that stop you short in the path you were on. Here is a question for you to ponder today.

What meaning or purpose does your life have now that is making an impact now and for eternity? If you were to stop living tonight.....would anyone notice a big hole in their life because you are no longer impacting it. Most of us should be able to say our family would be impacted? However, in my opinion, that is the bare minimum of impact that is fully expected by those who get married and have kids. That is a basic starting pint of impact you should have! Who else besides your immediate family members would be impacted if you were forced out of the game of life?

If you cannot immediately think of people outside of your family who would be at a loss if you were taken out of the game of life.....you probably are not making much of an immediate and eternal difference in this world with your one and only life. When you think of living your life....Believe and Focus on now. You are not promised another day.

Make today count!

Bible Reading For Today Revelation Chapter 14

We should all know this....one day we will stand before the God of the universe and give an account of what did we do for Christ sake while we were given one life to live. Those who never accepted Christ and sided with the Satan will be judged for their sins and rejection of God. Those who have given their life to Christ will never be judged for the sins they committed....that is covered in Grace.....however, we will give an account for what we failed to do with the gifts, resources and passions that God gave us.
