Sep. 11, 2009 - Living life
What are you plans for today? Finish up school then maybe get together with a friend or go shopping, maybe watch a movie by yourself in your room?
My plans are to finish school, then go shopping with my mother. Then I will probably hole up in my room the rest of the day and read or talk with friends throught the computer. Living for myself, right? It's a selfish thing, and something I haven't really thought about often.
Jimmy Carter once said, "We should live our lives as though Christ was coming this afternoon."
When I read those words I think of it as not doing what you want to do all the time. Perhaps helping your parents with chores around the house, play with your younger siblings, or spend some time praying.
I don't know about you but I think I'll spend some time in my Bible today instead of reading anything else!
