Second Chances

Along the journey of life, we are blessed with “second chances.” The second opportunity to make a wrong, right. The second experience to do again what you blew the first time, thanks to the grace of someone extending it to you. Second chances come from those who love us, believe in us, and want the best for us. Second chances even come from God, due to the fact that He is a loving, forgiving, grace and mercy giving God who invented second chances!

But there is one thing you will never ever have a second chance to experience. Time. Each second of time that passes will forever be gone in the history of life, never to be found again. Each moment of your life, each breath, every conversation, every decision, every thought and action you participate in at that time, is forever gone.

Therefore, be wise with your time. It is appointed by God that everyone will eventually run out of time. The time will come when you will find yourself at the threshold of eternity, waiting with unknown expectations what lies before you. Do everything you can at that point in life to have no regrets with what you did with your time.

You only have one life on earth filled with a finite amount of time. Use is wisely. And as you do…

You watch… You wait… You’ll see!
