At a certain age you realize the greatest loss you can experience is a theft you perpetrate upon yourself; the waste of days given us is there any greater piercing remorse than the realization that a person has thrown away the potential that resides in every sunrise. James Lee Burke Light of the World Scripture For he says, “In the time of my favor I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you.” I tell you, now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation. 2 Corinthians 6:2
Song
One Day too late Skillet
Tick tock hear the clock countdown Wish the minute hand could be rewound So much to do and so much I need to say Will tomorrow be too late Feel the moment slip into the past Like sand through an hourglass In the madness I guess I just forget To do all the things I said [Pre] Time passes by Never thought I’d wind up One step behind Now I’ve made my mind up [Chorus] Today I’m gonna try a little harder Gonna make every minute last longer Gonna learn to forgive and forget ‘Cause we don’t have long, gonna make the most of it Today I’m gonna love my enemies Reach out to somebody who needs me Make a change, make the world a better place ‘Cause tomorrow could be one day too late One day too late One day too late [V2] Tick tock hear my life pass by I can’t erase and I can’t rewind Of all the things I regret the most I do… Wish I’d spent more time with you Here’s my chance for a new beginning I saved the best for a better ending And in the end I’ll make it up to you, you’ll see You’ll get the very best of me [Bridge] Your time is running out You’re never gonna get it back Make the most of every moment Stop saving the best for last
Sentence Prayer
Father: Help me to seize each Day as a gift of your salvation
