Here is a quote from a source that has always reminded me to appreciate God’s gift of life:
“First I was dying to finish high school & start college.
& then I was dying to finish college & start working.
& then I was dying to marry & have children.
& then I was dying for my children to grow old, go to & finish school.
& then I was dying to retire.
& now, I am dying& suddenly I realized,
I FORGOT TO LIVE”

LESS0N: Every person needs to have a purpose for living and seek to find the meaning in his existence.
And most often times those who have discovered theirs understand that it is to live for service to others and for the glory of God.
