What would you do differently?

If this were your last year? Your last day? We've hardly gotten used to writing an "8" at the end of our checks, and now we only have 48 weeks left to carry out our 52-week plan. Or write one.

I tell my son that greatness is not a single choice, but the sum of the thousands of small choices that fill up our minutes, our days, our years, until we look back and wonder what we've done. What would you do differently if this were your last year? And would God put an end to your year because you had finished His work, or because He was tired of waiting for you to start?

    I am ecstatic that we are saved by grace and that God patiently waits for us. When I look back at what I have done, a lot of time has been squandered on activities that seemed important to me at the time. Now there is a shift to more meaningful service where I can use my experience to help others make better choices and to mentor those in need. However, if the time were real short, the TV, sporting events and the internet would immediately get a low priority. That makes me a work in progress. How about you?
