The In Between
When you look at a tombstone there are 3 phases of life to note. Birth, death, and the in between. The in between is most commonly referred to as the dash. This dash consists of all the things we do while we're alive or to put it another way it is the life we lived. But all dashes are not the same. Some dashes tell the story of people played it safe and chose not to share their amazingness with the world. Then there are some who chose to live with purpose and lead powerful lives. So the question is this
What will you do with your dash?
If you're reading this then I assume you are also breathing. If you are breathing then that means you have life. What you possess in the form of bones, conscience, and spirit is not only a gift but a miracle. It would be a shame for us to waste such a once in a lifetime opportunity.
We can all make an impact in this world in numerous ways. No you don't have to be some popular or rich person to do so. You can make an impact with what you have and where you are. Our lives don't belong to us and we are responsible for how we choose to live. This should not be something to be feared. It should put life in perspective knowing that the lives we live will either go on to be remembered and rewarded or to be wasted and forgotten forever.
People say you only live once. I say you live twice but what happens in the next life is determined by choices you make in this one. The time is now. We don't have much of it left and we can't take this for granted. Walk with me as I follow the One who has all power. We will be unstoppable as we navigate these perilous times and live in true power. So cheers! Here's to living life like it means something. Shalom my friends.
Is there more to life than the here and now?
Is there anything that lasts forever?
