Frail Clay Jars

Today I realize the fragility of human life. Today I wish that everyone would.

“How long has it been since you repented? I mean truly repented? If I may ask.”

“Well it's been about at least three years now...”

“I think it's time to do it again.”

“Oh don't worry, I plan on having a long and serious talk with Him.”

This is a conversation between me and my boss man. He had to have a check-up for cancer a couple weeks ago and they found something. It turns out it's not cancer, but something just as deadly. His life expectancy is 57, and he's 49.

'And Jesus went throughout all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and proclaiming the gospel of the kingdom and healing every disease and every affliction.' Matthew 9:35 ESV

My Grandmother is in the hospital right now with a continuing heart attack that has been going on since 5am the day before. Of course she hasn't had the greatest of health for a past 3-4 years but this time it may be it.

Again, the fragility of life. People don't realize that their life on this earth is not forever. I think especially in today's culture, a lot of people forget that. And what is even worse is that these same people probably don't know Christ.

Look... I am not a “fanatic” (not in the worlds definition at least) but I have experienced the awesome power of God so many times since I confessed Jesus Christ that if I lied saying God is not real I would probably hang myself like Judas did because of the guilt he had from betraying Jesus. I can't imagine saying that, I can't imagine living without Him either.

What I am trying to say is... stop waiting. God is real. If you have had someone witness or talk about Christ around you, that was God trying to get your attention. It's time to get His.

My hand laid the foundation of the earth,
   and my right hand spread out the heavens;
when I call to them,
   they stand forth together. Isaiah 48:13
