How Would You Live Your Last Days On Earth?


Yesterday, I was sitting watching the verdict in the death case of Casey Anthony, and was wondering what could have been going through her head. If convicted, she was facing death.It made me think, what if I knew I only had a short time to live.How would I spend my last days on earth if I knew for sure I was dying.Would I visit Disney Land, a place I’ve always wanted to go since I was a kid? Would I spend that time with my love ones? Would I call the people that I’ve wrong to say I’m sorry?All these questions started flooding my mind as I sat and watch for any sign of fear in this girl. I’m not saying if she was innocent or guilty, because that’s not what this message is all about.When you face something of that magnitude, the thought of being spared another chance is overwhelming.A lot of Christians came to the Lord because death knocked on their door, but God spared them.We never know what God would have us go through to get us to come back to him.


If you are a person today that is holding on to some kind of grudge toward someone, or you are just walking around feeling defeated, what would you do if you knew you were dying in a few days?Would you sit and be defeated, or would you try and make the best out of what time you have left? We all have to think that today is our last day here because we are not promised tomorrow.So today, go tell that person you have wrong that you are sorry. Tell those you love that you love them.Give a smile to the person you see feeling down. Don’t put off today for tomorrow because it just might be too late.
