A radio talk show host asked his audience an interesting question. “If you knew that this was the last day of your life, what would you do?” The responses were overwhelming and most enlightening.

The first caller said, “I’d hurry to an organ donor bank and make sure that some worthy persons would benefit from my body parts.”

Another said, “I would crowd everything that I thought was fun in this, my last day. I’d want to go out laughing.”

The third caller said, “I would phone all of my friends and tell them how much I appreciated all that they had done for me. I’d want each of them to know how much our friendship meant.”

Finally, one said, “I’d want to take time to be alone with God and pray and make sure that my heart is right with Him. I’d want Him to know how much I was looking forward to meeting Him, too.”

Although it is not a pleasant thought, we each have a date with death. Few know the day or the hour. But we all know for certain that there is life after this life.

PRAYER: Father, “Now is the acceptable time” for us to be sure that Your Son is our Savior and Lord. May we live in light of eternity, making the most of each moment. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.

SCRIPTURE FOR TODAY: For God says, “At just the right time, I heard you. On the day of salvation, I helped you.” Indeed, the “right time” is now. Today is the day of salvation. – 2 Corinthians 6:2
