Live

Life is often like walking up a flight of stairs with a distracted mind, and misjudging the final step.  You expected there to be one more stair than there is, and so you find yourself off balance for a moment when it's not where you expect it to be.

Sadly, there are far too many people who live their entire lives missing the final step, never reaching what God has in store for them.  Don’t be one of them!  You have to live your own life guided by the hand of God.  That’s all there is to it.  He has placed within us an unique fire in our hearts for something that makes us feel alive.  It’s our duty to find it and keep it lit.

So live the life He has given you today!  Don’t ignore death, but don’t be afraid of it either.  Be afraid of a life you never lived because you were too afraid to be obedient to God.  Death is not the greatest loss in life.  The greatest loss is what dies inside you while you’re still alive when you refuse to listen to God.  Be bold, be courageous, be scared to death, and then take the next step in the direction of what God wants for you anyway.

So find your love, your talents, your passions, and embrace them.  Don’t hide behind other people’s decisions.  Don’t let others tell you what you want.  Trust God's designed plan and experience your life!  The life He created from doing something that moves you is far better than the life you get from sitting around wishing you were doing it.  So do something today, and every day, that moves you.
