I Fell Yesterday --- Not In Love But On The Floor

It happened in a flick of a second, I found myself on the floor of the living room with blood coming out of mouth. I had slipped and fell. My first thoughts were, God don't let me be disfigured by this, please no handicap! My face had met with the couch's arm in a violent kiss. My second thoughts were "where was my guardian angel when all this happened? Isn't he supposed to protect me?"

As my husband and I rushed to the emergency room, I realized that tomorrow is not guaranteed to anyone regardless of our social status: rich, poor, celebrity or unknown, educated or uneducated. And I'm always amazed at how some people live their life as if they will not have to account to God. Quite frankly, it doesn't matter whether you believe in Him on or not. Like someone said, after death nobody will be an Atheist.

And for us Christians this consciousness should be at the forefront of our thoughts. Are we where supposed to be? Doing what we're supposed to do? Surrounded by the right people? Would the Master find us ready were he to show up at any time of the day? Will He find us busy on our assigned task?

We must live our life as we will die tomorrow but plan as if we will never die, says H.Wafo in his book "The 12 Secrets of the Kingdom" I got reminded again of this truth while working on a project that required reading the book. He goes to say that  it is very important to "Understand who we are (our identity) and where we are going (our destiny)" and before we were created God had prepared good works for us to walk in them (Straight from the Bible).

What kind of good works are you supposed to do? If you know them, are you doing them?

My biggest fear is to leave this earth without fulfilling my destiny. Every morning when I wake up, I thank God for one more opportunity, one more chance to find me worthy to shine His light and I burst in worship.

I did so this morning again. I'm grateful I'm alright, just a glued slit on my chin and some wounds in the mouth. I can still think, I can still reason, I can still write and I'm fiercely pursuing my destiny. I hope you're doing the same.

Tresorly Yours,
Tresor.
