Ever look back at the moments that pass you by? The moments where you think to yourself "I should have done something different".... "I should have reacted differently"?
I have been struggling with a few times in the recent past where I would be ashamed to call myself a Christian. Thankfully there is God's Mercy, and even though we may not always have second chance to change the decision at least we have the forgiveness of the Living God.
Take a moment to pause and think about what outcome you would want, or should I say what God would want. I will give you an example, At work the other day we had a homeless guy walk in and everyone walked away from the door and ignored him. Even me. As he asked so kindly "may I have your cans and bottles please?" No one responded, no one. After he had walked away I sat down and thought, "Tim you idiot!" What was I thinking, or should I say, not thinking. I don't know what a difference of 20 cans of bottles would have done in his life, but I do know that Everyone is somebody that will spend eternity some where. And let me tell you, I am a firm believer in that the small things count. --- from this story I have simply shown you that learning from our pasts can be eternity in heaven or hell, what small or large choice can change everything! I will take this as far as to say that it isn't right for us to pick and choose who we should share the amazing news of Jesus with. For HE paid much to high of price... There is no guarantee of tomorrow for any of us. With that said we should live our lives and really pause and think about the decisions in front of us.
