Embrace life for as long as you can

Do we realize what life really is? This game of Russian roulette, where every day we are constantly faced with decisions that could make or break us. Do we realize just how short life really is? We need to enjoy this life God has granted us.

Romans 10:9 states, “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth, the Lord Jesus is savior, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.” And I quote this scripture for the reason that even though we make mistakes in this life, God is still willing to forgive.

I’m thankful for the ones that have forgiven me for the mistakes I’ve made. So I encourage you to enjoy this life, for we know not how long we will have to do so. For there are such things as second chances.

Thank You Mr. McClain! I have been struggling for some time with a family member that has had his share of mistakes and until now, I harbored very ill feelings for this person. But you are right we never know when the last time we see or talk with them is THE last time. I don't wanna live with regrets.
