#LIVINGTHEVALUEDLIFE
- THIS IS WHY YOU SHOULD LIVE WELLSome time ago some colleagues and I were travelling out of our town to attend our colleague’s wedding. Whiles on our way, we had to stop in another town to wait for another colleague to join us. As our car came to a stop, right at where it stopped, I saw a picture of a friend posted on the wall. I didn’t even read what was written on the poster, I just assumed that my friend was hosting a program in that town. It was when I leaned forward to read what was written on the flyer, that I realised that it was actually my friend’s funeral invitation. My friend had died and had been burried about a month ago and I didn’t even hear about it. This friend was young and had his whole life ahead of him. In fact there was a time I saw him on tv featuring in a movie and I remember thinking to myself that he was going to be great. I guess this was how far he came. The truth is we don’t have our whole years ahead of us. We only have the very moment we have. Don’t waste it on things that wouldn’t matter. You are not going to live forever so live your life as each day matters. Don’t be too greedy and lose your sense of humanity. Don’t waste your life on things that are worthless. My friend isn’t alive but some of his works are, if they were bad, h would be remeberd for his bad works and if they were Good, his legacy will keep living on. Live well! Know Jesus and live for Him. He says he is going to prepare a place for you and He shall come back for you. Don’t destroy your life, do the right thing. Also don’t be too afraid to do what you need to do now. Live the valued life. ♥
- A MESSAGE TO ARCHIPPUS, A MESSAGE TO ALL…Who is Archippus?
This name was only mentioned twice in the bible, the first is in Paul’s letter to the Colossians where he admonished him not to neglect his duties as a minister and the second in Philemon, here he refered to him as a fellow soldier. From this we know that Archipus was a servant of Jesus Christ and worked together with Paul in preaching the good news. Our concern today will be why Paul wrote to him saying ” And tell ARCHIPUS, Be sure to finish the task you were given in the Lord’s service.” – Colossians 4:17 Sometimes we all need to be reminded to stay focus, especially now that we see the end in view. Like Archippus, you also need to understand that you have a task to complete and that you wouldn’t be here forever. God has purposed for you an assignment even before you were born and on that you will give account. Many things wouldn’t matter on the day you are to give account. So today just like Apostle Paul admonished Archippus, I admonish you; don’t be strayed away by the enticement of this world from your ministry. The very thing you are here for.- LIVING THE VALUED LIFE
