Seize The Day
My times are in Your hand. Psalm 31:15
Before entering the broadcasting field, Jim Valvano led the North Carolina State University basketball team to a national championship. Then cancer developed in his lower back. Invited to address the Duke University squad, Jim had this to say: Life changes when you least expect it to. The future is uncertain. So, seize this day, seize this moment, and make the most of it.
God gives us an urgent directive in Hebrews 3:13, Exhort one another daily, while it is called Today, lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. Why is there such a strong insistence on today?
It may be that today, this very day, could be the last one in our time here on earth. Today may be your last opportunity to accept Gods gift of salvation, or if you know the Lord already, to share His love with a friend or loved one.
James has this warning about presuming upon our tomorrows: You do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away (4:14).
Seize the opportunities that God gives you today. Thats sound advicenot just for basketball players, but for all of us.
Redeem the timeGod only knows
How soon our little life may close;
As every passing moment flows,
Redeem the time! Anon.

Turnings
A jolly time is had by all,
As Summer journeys into Fall.
The ice cream doesnt melt as fast,
As I remember in the past.
And ladies look as good these days,
As ever once consumed my gaze.
Though I stare longer in my turn,
For they are much more likely now to burn.
The formal dresses, once so fine,
Have given way to bits of twine.
Im not complaining, you will see,
But my poor eyesight troubles me.

So true, Yorkie.
I'm trying to decide where to go out to dinner tonight. It is 92 here and I don't want to use the oven.
Seeing the pictures makes us see how insignificant our worries are in comparison to what others suffer.
